i've just discovered a small display bug in 0.5.2: calling "readline\(\)" makes rkward come up with an input window -- that's fine. but if you invoke "readline\(\)" several times, these windows grow in size each time, horizontally as well as vertically.

see for yourself:
a\) type "readline\(\)" in the R-konsole repeatedly
b\) try a "for" loop:
for\(i in c\(1:5\)\) readline\(\)
c\) try with "lapply":
lapply\(c\(1:5\), readline\)
...

in addition, the context segment of that window could probably be tuned a little, try this:

for\(i in c\(1:5\)\)\{
cat\(i\) \# just to provoke the context display
readline\(\)
\}

to me it's a little confusing to have both segments shown with the same style. e.g., would it help to do without the white background for the context output? the window could be a lot smaller as well, but this is probably due to the growing effect described above.
