Hi -

Are there any known bugs involving the use of the R editor on mac?   
I'm teaching a course on R programming; some of my students use R  
2.5.1 on OSX and receive strange messages in red type when executing  
code from the editor.  For example, one just emailed me to note that  
- as she attempted to plot two columns of a dataframe "x" (by  
highlighting the command below and pressing CMD + ENTER), the  
following message appeared in her R console window:

> plot(x$body, x$brain)

Strange message in red:

> 2007-09-26 12:52:36.576 R[793] *** Assertion failure in - 
> [RDeviceView lockFocus], AppKit.subproj/NSView.m:3248
> 2007-09-26 12:52:36.576 R[793] *** REngine.runREPL: caught ObjC  
> exception in the main loop!

I have never seen anything like this when I run R on Windows.
