'capture.output' is still available since it is an R function.

Without being more explicit about your code, it is hard to tell. Did you look at the example of an R GUI implemented with rpy2 (for example at: http://bitbucket.org/lgautier/rpy2/src/88942b03d72d/demos/radmin.py ) > In addition, if I don't wrap the commands in the 'capture.output' R > command (which essentially turns all output to string), then my > application segfaults. I would be very much interested in having the code that make it crash.
