Hard to tell what exactly's going on from here, but Python itself is quite happy to create and manipulate strings much larger than 65k -- its maximum is somewhere in the gigabytes range, if that. (That's a suspicious number, though -- perhaps some of your widgetry somewhere has a 2**16 limit?) > What seems ideal to me would be a way to grab the R console output one > line at a time rather than all at once so I can just append those lines > individually to my gtk text buffer.

(Unless 'foo' calls the print() function.) Try robjects.r("print(foo)") or robjects.r["print"](robjects.r("foo")). -- Nathaniel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Apps built with the Adobe(R) Flex(R) framework and Flex Builder(TM) are powering Web 2.0 with engaging, cross-platform capabilities.
