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.)
Look at this section:
Universal nightly builds for Mac OS X (10.4 Tiger and 10.5 Leopard)
For R-2.9.2, you want to look at the third row of that table:
R-2.9-branch
R 2.9.2 Patched (2009-09-05)
http://r.research.att.com/R-2.9-branch-leopard-universal.tar.gz
Note that this is NOT an installer, you have to untar the file and
have it "inflate" at the root of your file system. The way to do that
is explained immediately after that download/table listing:
"""Alternatively you can use the tar-ball (*.tar.gz) which must be
unpacked in the root (e.g. tar fvxz R*.tar.gz -C /), but doesn't
contain the GUI (see below for a separate download)."""
(2) I don't understand why you say (below) to download 2.9.0 rather
than 2.9.2.
I don't know why he mentioned that, but if this is the case, look at
the "Leopard Build" section, there is a *.pkg installer for 2.9.0
http://r.research.att.com/R-2.9.0.pkg
So could you please give step by step fool-proof instructions?
(Right now, after fiddling, I can't launch R or JGR.)
Downloading and installing one of the two R versions above will at
least get R back up and running on your system (from the terminal, at
least -- perhaps the *.pkg has the R.app gui installed too, I'm not
certain).
If R is completely hosed, you might want to start by removing all
current installs (/Library/Frameworks/R.framework) you have now to
ensure everything is fresh and clean (but maybe not, up to you.).

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
