Hi,
I really like the R application for mac OS X but there are two
issues which often get in my way working with R:
the first;
When I copy code from for example a website or R help-file and want
to paste it in my R-script the text gets pasted as rich text
which leads in most cases to different text size, font-family etc.
That is really annoying and currently I copy text first to an editor
like TextMate and then into my R-script which is not really
comfortable.
So a "copy and match style"-option or a default matching of pasted
text to the documents defaults (like in TextMate) would be great.
Fair enough - I'll look into that.
the second;
I use the help-functions a lot to look up all the different
arguments of a function.
What I would love is if it would be possible to open help-files in a
different program (like Safari).
It is - see NEWS and also

So that when I type ?par (or help("par")) my default web browser
pops up and shows me the help-file.
That would give me the opportunity to easily search the help-file
via CMD+F and to quickly switch between a help-file and a script.
hope that these features will be implemented some day.
