4. Input and output windows cannot be resized independently. I would still vote for two separate input and output windows.
And I'd vote for a single combined window :)
the problem with using only one window is that I cannot do automatic dragging, copy and paste, etc in a single windows using apple's API from MLTE. It will be a lot of code to be written because in MLTE all the text in a widget has the same read/write priviledges. It is something I don't think I'll do in the near future as it has low priority in my opinion. I think that the primary goal is to release a functional Aqua GUI for the Darwin build without essential limitations: which means that I have to fix the problem with tcltk, we should provided an automatic way of distributing prebuilt versions of the packages and fix several problems with packages (tkrplot doens't work! uuid (for BioC) etc). This would be done before october. There are also problem with grid/lattice and quartz I have not yet fixed. The eventloop issue is another delicate problem.
It is in my mid-term plan to fix this problem with separate input/output (and of course any contribution -i.e. working code- is welcome), add a toolbar to the console window, etc, make RAqua applescriptable, etc.
it starts only if you check the item "install", otherwise the R session6. If you want to download from CRAN you select packages in a window, and the download starts if you close the window.
continues giving you a prompt.That's not intuitive, there should be a separate download or go button.
I don't find it intuitive, either, but isn't it fairly standard under Aqua/OSX that dialogs are `live' and changes happen without a separate confirmation button (eg in System Preferences)?
you should start QuartzX and use x11(display=":0")7. I thought I saw somewhere that RAqua can now open X11 devices. Mine can't.
You don't even need x11(display=":0"), but you do need to start an X server. RAqua doesn't start an X server and I don't think it should.
X display windows are still not resizable, which is a similar event-handling issue to the Tk one.
