I have a shiny new MacBook Pro, but am a total Mac-newbie. I downloaded
and installed R 2.11.1, Xtools,
the R Mac developer tools (for building packages). I'd like to use
eclipse/StatET/subclipse subversion to build my packages
and sync with R-Forge as I do on Win. I read the R-Mac-FAQ, but the
following questions remain, for now:
* I'm not sure whether to choose the 32-bit or 64-bit R.app as my
main/default R.
* Are R packages installed separately for 32- and 64-bit or all together?
* Similarly, for eclipse, should I work with the 32-bit or 64-bit R?
* Rprofile: Under linux, I would put this at ~/.Rprofile; on Win, I keep
it in the 'start-in' directory, c:\R.
Where should it go on Mac so it is always found?
thanks
-Michael
