Is the dim attribute not supported by setSEXP? If so, > does this mean a matrix should be sent as a list, then a dim > command sent in a second step? It's a combination of a bug and missing feature. The bug is that the attribute of an expression is not decoded at all. The missing feature is that (dotted-pair) lists are not supported in decode, so you can't pass an attribute anyway, because they are stored in dotted-pair lists. So, for now, yes, you have to assign the names in a separate step - I'll need to fix that ... I'll keep you posted. Thanks for spotting this!
