I just upgraded R from 2.12.1 to 2.14.0. I found that an error of any kind in the R Console window with cause a hang with the spinning beach ball. The hang can be caused by something as innocuous as mean(x) if x does not exist. The only other reference to this problem that I could find is at http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.mac/6587. I even tried completely removing R (rm -rf /Library/Frameworks/ R.framework /Applications/R.app) and doing a fresh install with the same result. I also tried with R 2.13.0 and 2.13.1 (R.app 1.4.0 and 1.4.1, respectively, with the same problem so this has perhaps been going on for a while.

I hope this can be fixed. For me, I guess it's back to 2.12.2.
