[Ken Knoblauch]

Hi,

I just downloaded the latest version of R 2.6.2 and obtained unusual output
for a simple

plot(1:10)

Here is the sessionInfo()
sessionInfo()
R version 2.6.2 RC (2008-02-05 r44340)
powerpc-apple-darwin8.10.1

locale:
en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8/C/en_US.UTF-8/en_US.UTF-8

attached base packages:
[1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base

and here is what was returned in the GUI (normally just the prompt):
