However… In this process, I pressed cmd minus to reduce the text size in my R.app console and got this set of warnings, which seem worth passing on as well: 2017-07-21 01:29:15.835 R[81838:2478070] -[NSNull bytes]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x7fffe0a44250 2017-07-21 01:29:15.841 R[81838:2478070] *** RController: caught ObjC exception while processing system events.
