R-helpers: I just updated from R 7.0 to R 7.2.2 today. I am using MAC OS X version 10.5.4 on a Macbook to run R.

Can someone tell me what is going on here and how I can fix the problem? I found a similar report on R-help that was never resolved and also involved a MAC (http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/e4/help/08/06/15556.html ). Could this be a MAC issue? Thanks very much for your time. Brant Inman [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
