Re: [R] Odd crash with tcl/tk
That should not be necessary if you used
options(gsubfn.engine = "R")
since it should not be using tcltk in the first place.
Perhaps you are using an old version of gsubfn -- the latest on CRAN is 0.5-3.

Re: [R] Odd crash with tcl/tk
Hi Peter
Spot on! You where absolutely right. After installing the tcltk bits
it worked just fine.
Thank you very much!

Re: [R] Odd crash with tcl/tk
Sorry to chime in late (for some reason, I was not at the Mac when this came in
originally).
I can't reproduce the situation. One guess is that you haven't installed the
tcltk bits, as indicated on the http://cran.at.r-project.org/bin/macosx/ page.

Re: [R] Odd crash with tcl/tk
Hi
@ Andrew: Did you get this problem solved?
I am having similar problems and have tried to work around it using
options(gsubfn.engine = "R") as suggested by Gabor.
However, this don't solve on my machine. R just freezes up trying to
execute read.csv.sql()
On OSX 10.6.4, R 2.11.1 (2010-05-31) 64bit
Any help is much appreciated!

One thought is that if this is to use gsubfn or sqldf (which uses
gsubfn) then you can get them to not use the tcltk code but use R code
instead by either of these two means:
1. issue the command:
options(gsubfn.engine = "R")
before issuing your library(sqldf) or library(gsubfn) command. You
can put the options command in your .Rprofile if you like and then you
will have it on every session.
or
2. use a build of R that has no tcltk in it. In that case it will
recognize it and switch to using R. I believe one such build exists
for the Mac.

[R] Odd crash with tcl/tk
Hi,
Recently, I've been trying to use packages in R that require loading the
Tcl/Tk interface. However, I get a strange result and a crash that I
haven't been able to find discussion about on these boards (or any others).
When I enter library(tcltk), it reads "Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... ", but
then never says "done" or displays some sort of error message. Looks like
this:
> x11()
> library(tcltk)
Loading Tcl/Tk interface ...
>
Now you can type additional commands in, at your peril! For example, if I
type in the text "library", nothing happens, but "library(" causes R to
freeze up irreparably, with "executing:
try(gsub('\\s+','',paste(capture.output(print(args(library,collapse=")),silent=TRUE)"
displayed at the bottom. When this happens, there's nothing you can do but
restart R because it's completely frozen.
I'm running R version 2.11.1 Patched (2010-07-27 r52627)
[R.app GUI 1.35 (5603) i386-apple-darwin9.8.0]
with XQuartz 2.3.5 (xorg-server 1.4.2-apple53)
on a mac (snow leopard)
Thanks for any help/suggestions in advance,
Andrew
