Philippe,
ad 2)
I totally agree that alt+f1 is the better and more comfortable option here. The main
reason I tried to test some of the functionality that is typically display outside the R
console, such as plotting and ?topic (and honestly, I did not realize from the start that
alt+f1 was meant to fully replace traditional ways). I´d really like to use R outside the
terminal, but it was the only I way I got it to work from within Komodo. Both R.app and
R64.app did not work. All I get when I run R is the open -a mydirectory/R64.app message
at the bottom and then after a couple of seconds I get the "Ready" message. No
R pops up, because it obviously does not start.
open -a mydirectory/R64.app
So, is R64.app located in "mydirectory"? If not, then, you know why it
does not work.
Running R from the terminal worked, but the Command output inside Komodo
appeared to have problems, when I run about 100 lines of code or display
data.frames with a couple of hundred rows. Is there a way to move the command
output around, i.e. relocate the window or even open it in another window? That
would be really helpful particularly if you work on two screens.
Well, what you are asking is having a R console displayed in a separate
window that you could place on your second screen... and you have it: it
is your terminal window where R is running.
Best,
Philippe
thx for all the help!

Matt,
Yes, I see this problem. Thanks for report. Also ??topic is wrong. Note two
points:
1) ?topic works with R.app/R64.app. So, just in case you would consider using
R.app instead of R inside a terminal session,
2) I have not noticed this bug because using ?topic inside SciViews-K / Komodo
is a little bit silly. There is a much better mechanism: place your cursor on a
word (the 'topic' in ?topic) and hit Alt-F1, and you got the corresponding help
page displayed. It is much more natural to type the name of your function, then
Alt-F1 to see the man page, than to type ?myfun, then move back to eliminate
'?', move forward and continue typing your code, isn't it? Also try
Alt-Shift-F1 for a better alternative to ??topic from within SciViews-K /
Komodo.
Best,
Philippe

Philippe,
now I tried to run the SciViews-K / Komodo combo on my Mac. It did work and I
like it. Thx for your suggestion.
On first sight everything works really well. The only thing that bothers me a little bit,
is that I was only able to run it with the "directly in terminal" option.
Everytime I start ?whateverhelp from Komodo R inside the terminal crashes. If
I run ?myhelp directly from the terminal, everything works just fine. Probably
I could just live with that, but somehow I want to fix it or at least know why
this is happening.
Besides, I think the code folding, syntax highlighting and auto-complete /
command+t stuff is really an advantage over the standard editor on a mac and
it´s well worth the hustle.

Dear all,
after trying several suggestions from the list for a nice R-Editor / IDE for
MacOS X and really trying some of those that needed to be configured a little
more (such as emacs, aquamacs and StatET / Eclipse), I prefer StatET at the
moment. I found more experienced like John suggesting this combination
(http://www.mail-archive.com/r-help@r-project.org/msg38883.html) on Mac OS X.
So far I am really happy with it except for the plotting. I just can´t get
plots to go. everytime I plot(x) nothing happens. What´s striking is that the
edit() works and opens up in X11. Is there some configuration option I just
missed ?
best regards
You haven't try SciViews-K/Komodo, don't you?
