[R-SIG-Mac] Rcmdr & tcltk

[Cormac Lawler]

Hi,
I posted to r-sig-mac before, but I'm still having problems
downloading Rcmdr. I've tried following the instructions at:
http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Misc/Rcmdr/installation-notes.html

I'm still getting errors when I try to download the package from
within R - problem seems to be TclTk packages. I asked on the R help
list - they suggested I needed to install X11, which I did, but I
still get this error [2].

A possible problem is that i have already downloaded Rcmdr from the
web - there are certainly plenty of files on my system, as a command-F
confirms. These could be interfering in some way.

However, i suspect that the real issue is Tcl/Tk, as the console
details below show. I have downloaded R (base). Is there anything else
I need to download or is there a possible bug with the CRAN base
download or the way i've managed my files?

Thanks,
Cormac
