I am new to R but have spent a little time messing around with it. I  
am running version 2.8.1 under Leopard OS 10.5 on a power PC and also  
on my laptop, which is Intel. Unless, I am wrong, this version is just  
a bit buggy.

1. In the R Commander, there is no direct entry of data. The Edit menu  
does not include a "New data set" choice, as advertised in the Windows  
version.

2. Entering data from a text file is not always trouble free.  
Variables do not always seem to be understood as variables.  
Scatterplot and Matrix scatterplot options under Graph are grayed out  
when they shouldn't be.

3. Finally, attempting to edit your imported data file (by clicking  
the "Edit data set") does open an editor window, but clicking around  
in it to delete variables, etc, invariably leads to the program  
hanging. The spinning beach ball.

Am I missing something? Any suggestions?
