A good place to set this is by adding the following line export R_ARCH=/i386 to ~/.profile Hope this helps! -Charlie -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/Running-32-bit-R-in-terminal-on-Mac-OS-tp978562p978928.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. __ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.

[R] Running 32 bit R in terminal on Mac OS
Hello, I am using Mac OS on R. When I start R thru the application menu I have the option of running both the 32 bit version as well as the 64 bit version. When I type in R in terminal I believe it starts up the 64 bit version. How can I start the 32 bit version instead??
