Whoa! Be careful there, there is no collective "you"; this is a mailing list. Søren, Dirk, Gabor, and I are four quite distinct people, and at least Dirk and I are Linux people who would rather not touch COM... Especially not when there's a perfectly fine library embedding method available. This approach usually works across all platforms although Windows and Macs tend to require a few extra twists. (I'm not up to speed on Macs. I gather that OS X managed to mess up dynamic linking somewhat but I believe it has all been sorted. You should probably have a peek at the MacOSX FAQ at http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/RMacOSX-FAQ.html and the page http://www.economia.unimi.it/R) > CrystalSpace is a 3d engine that has a COM simulation layer for Unix- > style platforms > I think (last time I looked was a few years back).
