See the R-admin manual. That’s it then — last time I used X11 on OSX was ~ 3 years ago (i.e. I am not a big tcl/tk user). I reinstalled R 3.0.3 RC from http://r.research.att.com/, customised the installation omitting tcl/tk, removed the tcl/tk related stuff I had installed before and now both R and HB are happy.
