Beyond a general problem with X11, that it sometimes doesn't display 
-especially when it is inactive for a while-  new windows (like new 
terminal, R device, or emacs) and only the restart helps, I found a       
problem which might also be especially the X11's problem.
   
>From an apple Terminal window, the following code (which is the first  
boot.ci example) works just fine.
     data(city)
     ratio <- function(d, w)
          sum(d$x * w)/sum(d$u * w)
     city.boot <- boot(city, ratio, R=999, stype="w",sim="ordinary")
     boot.ci(city.boot, conf=c(0.90,0.95),
          type=c("norm","basic","perc","bca"))
I get normally the four types of confidenec intervals.
   
But form apple X11 public Beta 0.3 I get the following error messages,

> library(boot)

Attaching package `boot':


        The following object(s) are masked _by_ .GlobalEnv :
         boot

> data(city)
> ratio <- function(d, w)  sum(d$x * w)/sum(d$u * w)
> city.boot <- boot(city, ratio, R=999, stype="w",sim="ordinary")
> boot.ci(city.boot, conf=c(0.90,0.95), type=c("norm","basic","perc","bca"))
[1] "odd number of coulumns"
     [,1]       [,2]
[1,] "95/1.074" "1.908/0.978"
Error in paste("(", ints1[, 2 * (1:n1)], ",", sep = "") :
        subscript out of bounds

Did anyone find the same behavior under X11? Any soultions? Or just that
is why it is still beta.

Thanks for any thoughts, suggestions!
