First of all, I would like to thank you for the great gui you
developped for R under mac. What a great change when it appeared!
By now, a few improvement would make user life even easier and more

Mainly regarding quartz graphic windows: having a toolbar with a few
features would not hurt.
I'm not a big fan of toolbars with "few" features since they take away

Quartz is more general and not limited to PDF.
Note that Quartz is a very modular infrastructure so you can even
write a package that provides an enhanced Quartz on-screen window.
Clearly if it was based on qdCococa it would be easy to fold it into R
later. Also note that Quartz is part of R and not the GUI, so it will
benefit all Mac users.
Cheers,

Thank you in advance for your attention. Best regards,
Thomas
