Re: [R] Close Window Button Problems

2008-06-12 Thread Prof Brian Ripley
You have failed to provide the most basic of information as requested in 
the posting guide.  As you mention 'i create a x11 window and plot' I will 
assume you mean that you open an X11() device and hence this is some 
Unix-alike OS.


This has come up several times before, so please search the archives. If 
you 'popen' R, its input is not from a tty and so it is not considered to 
be running interactively and hence is not expecting users to interact with 
it (like shutting down windows).


R 2.7.0 allows a --interactive flag which may help.  Exactly what the 
circumstances are in which the event loop is blocked seem to be 
system-specific.  But normally if non-interactive R is reading from stdin 
it is completely blocked until input is completed -- and that is not 
usually the case if R is interactive.


Should this be Windows (which does have an x11() device), the relevant 
flag is --ess.

tell me if there is a way i can get back this window functionality or if
it is not possible?
thank you kindly.

This should be posted on R-devel, not here.
