Do you mean the source command doesn't work? This requires a
different file specification than Windows. On my system to source a
file on the desktop it is source('/Users/kjbeath/Desktop/TestR.R')
If your looking for a GUI based R similar to Windows, then don't run
the unix version. The installer should have put an application R in
the Applications folder. Double click on it.
