[R-SIG-Mac] hang on use of ESC in R 2.6.2

[Ken Knoblauch]

Hi,

I notice with R 2.6.2 on a powerpc and on a MacBook Pro that if I hit ESC to
annul running a line in the GUI, input hangs with the spinning beach ball
for an indefinite period of time.  I haven't tried to see how long it will
hang, but
it is at least several minutes too long.  Checking Force Quit indicates that
R is not responding.

On the power pc, w/ Tiger (but the same thing happens on my Intel Mac w/
Leopard)
sessionInfo()
R version 2.6.2 (2008-02-08)
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:

Thanks.

best,

Ken
