When I type history() to the R console, I get a new window that is
always blank. How can I get history() working?

listed that looked like passwords. Because I didn't understand the
security implications (almost certainly non-existent), I mangled
these.
Mac Os X 10.4.11 (upgrading to Leopard as soon as I get some free
time)
