Jane, My sincere apologies; I don't know what I was seeing/thinking -- your original post was correct. Namely, you should download and install: http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/lang/CRAN/bin/macosx/R-3.1.2-snowleopard.pkg (although, I am use to using the main mirror http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/R-3.1.2-snowleopard.pkg) -- but that should not make a difference. The documentation does state...
*R 3.1.2* binary for Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) *and higher*, signed package. Contains R 3.1.2 framework, R.app GUI 1.65 in 64-bit for Intel Macs. The above file is an Installer package which can be installed by double-clicking. Depending on your browser, you may need to press the control key and click on this link to download the file. So, this should be the way to go. I'm glad you double checked!!
