I was suspecting this argument ;) -- however, I think from a usability point of view it should be possible to re-set the default setting also somewhere *within* the GUI if the GUI installer allows to set it. Maybe in a different place? > What about ?help did you not understand? It says That is where I found how to set it (for my current workspace). Finding where I can set it *permanently* was more difficult (especially when you never had the need to mingle with R-profiles before). That's why I decided to document it here in the mailinglist just in case others have troubles finding it, too.
