[rkward-devel] RKWard problem

[Peter Mayer]

Hi Thomas,

     I accepted the default path for the download, so no spaces.
     The restart seemed a good idea, but it doesn't seem to have made 
any difference.  I can't tell if R is running or not.  In the R Console 
box, the ">" prompt appears, but when I try to execute a simple "LS()" 
it hangs and never executes the command.
     I'm running Win-x64.
     It's getting later here in Oz, so I'll have to resume the struggle 
tomorrow.
     Thanks once again for your help,

Peter
