It just produces the "bell" sound on my 32-bit windows XP machine runing R
2.9.1
Is this really a "standard" combination? I know a lot of programs that use
ctrl-Z, but I've never come across this shortcut key combination for undo.

Subject: [R] Rcmdr GUI goes into loop via alt+backspace under Windows OS
I'm using Rcmdr version 1.4-10 with R version 2.9.0 under Vista x64.
A standard editing convention under Windows is that alt+backspace is a
keyboard shortcut for "undo". I often find myself hitting the [alt] and
[backspace] keys while editing scripts in Rcmdr. However, this causes the
Rcmdr GUI to go into a crazy mode where the menu keeps flashing and the
GUI
is unresponsive. Sometimes after several minutes, the GUI menus stop
sporadically flashing and the GUI becomes responsive again, but usually I
have to kill R.
Has anyone else seen this problem and might there be a fix for it?
If it weren't for the fact that the particular key combination is a
standard
in Windows I would ignore the problem, but I often get trapped by it
because
the GUI handles this standard Windows key combination is such a bizzare
way.
I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have.
Regards,
Andrew
