As the message says, if you really want to do that and kill all your documents, 
you can either use base::q() or base::quit() directly or (as NEWS say) set 
"RGUI.base.quit" option to TRUE if you want the old (dangerous) behavior.

Just as a reminder the only safe way to close the R GUI is <Cmd><Q> (followed 
by <Cmd><D> or <Enter> depending on whether you want to save the workspace or 
not) otherwise the GUI is killed instead of closed resulting in potential data 
loss.

Cheers,
Simon
