See the "Invoking R under Windows" section of the "An Introduction to R" manual for the loading sequence, and try playing around with options and/or deleting files to see if that fixes it. You can get to the extreme of loading nothing at all by using the --vanilla option on the command line; if that crashes, then there's some other problem. The other piece of advice is to please try out the 1.7.1 beta. This might be a bug that has already been fixed. You can get a recent build from < http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/murdoch/software/r-devel> Duncan Murdoch ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
