A couple of queries-comments about the Mac gui.

1. I'm curious what determines where new editor and quartz windows are positioned. Usually editor windows appear in the middle of my screen, and successive windows in the session shift down and to the right. My impression is that the last window position is remembered between sessions. Is there a way to reset the position of the initial window?

2. Quartz windows always open bottom left on my screen, irrespective of the preference setting. I've mentioned this before, but the behaviour has not changed. Am I altering the preference setting incorrectly, or is it broken?

3. I'm much enjoying the new gui editor. I've noticed that the following arcane bit of code defeats the bracket balancer, because some of the brackets are quoted and others aren't. Note that all the quote characters are single quotes.

    b <- 'b+c'
paste('(a', ifelse(!is.null(b), paste('-(', b, '))', sep=''), ')'), sep='')

My setup:
R version 2.13.1 (2011-07-08)
[R.app GUI 1.41 (5874) i386-apple-darwin9.8.0]
