>> Request: Could back and forward navigation keys be bound to "⌘-{" and "⌘-}" respectively? That would match how Safari (and others) handle history navigation.
> The keys mentioned in Safari for me are: “⌘-[" and “⌘-]” I would prefer  “⌘-[" and “⌘-]”  so that the Shift key is not necessary.

Sorry… typo when i grabbed the ⌘ character: you’re right, it’s the non-shifted square-brackets.

> Second, The function help bar (bottom of the "R console” window) is very helpful, but perhaps in too small a font size.
> The font used is also smaller than Apple chooses to use for the comparable Finder folder-trail and selection status bars.
> Could the font size/bar height be upped a couple of points (or perhaps linked to the display font size?
