I have had a minor but annoying problem with the Mac GUI that started with R version 3.4.3. I am using latest versions of everything: R 3.4.4, MacOS High Sierra 10.13.4, all packages fully updated, etc.
The command line history retains the carriage return at the end of the line. Since you have to enter a new carriage return to send the command, the stored command lengthens by one return every time you repeat it. So your key pattern has to be Ctrl-p or up-arrow to repeat the command, immediately followed by Delete to remove the final carriage return, followed by editing of the line if that is what you want. As I say, minor but annoying, and this behavior started with R 3.4.3 and persisted in R 3.4.4. As best as I recall, nothing changed in the OS around then so it seems to be an R issue. I would be very grateful for suggestions of how to mitigate it, or if there is any proposed fix. --Robert Almgren -- Quantitative Brokers http://www.quantitativebrokers.com -- CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail and any attachments=...{{dropped:23}} _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list R-SIG-Mac@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
