Well, I really don't know why this test fails, but it has been for quite a 
while, already. And in fact, the functionality that it is supposed to test 
works correctly. So this is really just a problem of the test, and nothing to 
worry about too much.

Both work fine, here. At least for SPSS it looks like the test file could not 
be read at all:

That's not really the plugin's fault, though I wonder why it doesn't work for 
you. The testfiles were specifically designed to cover some potential problems 
such as special characters in the variable names, but so far they were 
loading, alright, here. Can you try to track this down a bit more? I.e. try 
running the generated commands from the .rkcommands file, and try to pin down 
the point of failure from that.

Since all the plugin does is calling source(), I guess this will be fixed in R 
itself, soonishly.
