[rkward-tracker] [rkward:bugs] #116 PROBLEM IN R: Hard to stop locator() and identify(1)

[Thomas Friedrichsmeier]

Small update: There is now a way (although somewhat ugly) to force-close a graph, and thus break out of locator() this way.

If you run locator\(\) without specifying a number, or identify\(1\) and can't select the required point for some reason \(it happened to me today\), you've no way obvious way of getting out of it, and R is blocked. It took me a few minutes to understand that right-click was a solution.

I think Esc should stop these commands, but also that Ctrl+C and the "Interrupt all commands" button should work too. Closing the dialog, moving to another graph, etc. should also stop them, instead of hanging.

\(One could also dream of integrating these commands into the dialog, but that's another issue. ;-\)
