I think Nick is talking about a tool to edit an R objeckt like a matrix/vector/data.frame within a spreadsheet. You might want to take a look at the Omegahat package RGnumeric, which provides a bi-directional interface to the Open Source Gnumeric spread sheet tool (http://www.omegahat.org/RGnumeric/index.html). I never tried it out, though. I think there is no native way to use a spread sheet editor directly on R objects.
