Hi Simon,

I'm sorry to say that I've tried and failed to set up 64-bit R 2.9.2 and JGR.

(1) It's not clear to me where on http://r.research.att.com/ to download from. (I searched for "snow", since all else assumed that I know what I'm doing.)

(2) I don't understand why you say (below) to download 2.9.0 rather than 2.9.2.

So could you please give step by step fool-proof instructions? (Right now, after fiddling, I can't launch R or JGR.)

Thanks,
Michael

To answer all those recent posts on both mailing lists regarding JGR on OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard):

You need 64-bit R to run JGR, because Apple has removed 32-bit Java from OS X 10.6. So follow those steps:

1) Install 64-bit R from http://r.research.att.com/
option a) install R 2.9.0 package (but choose to NOT install gfortran) option b) unpack the leopard tar ball for R 2.9.2 and get the GUI from
 http://r.research.att.com/R-GUI-5473-2.9-leopard-Leopard64.dmg
 (in fact you can do both if you wish... ;))

2) install necessary packages as follows:
install.packages(c("rJava","JavaGD","iplots"))
install.packages("JGR",type="mac.binary")

3) download 64-bit JGR launcher from
http://urbanek.info/JGR-1.6-SL.dmg

Run the launcher and enjoy.

If you want to use JGR 1.7 from RForge.net, you have to install the packages from sources (when building JGR you must set NOAWT=1). If you are using your own build of R, you must build everything from sources yourself.

Cheers,
Simon
