I don't know: R fails to start again in my Mac ("The application R has
unexpectedly quit.") Re-installation and removing all .RData
and .Rhistory do not help this time either (that was the time between
receiving this message and answering now). However, it was the
R-2.1.0.dmg I got from CRAN, I started it in Mac way (clicking the
icon), it was the Mac graphical window. Further, I had checked ?options
which said that default package type in this case should be
"mac.binary". Still it wasn't, but it was "source". I didn't check
the .Platform that time, only pkgType.
It seems that I'll quit using R in MacOS X for a while, since she quits
me in the startup anyway (fortunately I have Linux as my main
environment).
