Output in console is a mess

Hello,

I have been working with R for a while, and recently I moved to
Ubuntu10.10 and installed Rkward. 

I am more or less satisfied with it, except for a few things:

- The output is a mess. In the terminal / macos R gui the output always
came out neatly in the form of a table. Bu not in rkward, making it a
nightmare to try to read out the output without first pasting it and
formatting it. It appears that each cell in the table is centered and
misaligned. 

- Output tables only occupy half of the console space, and making the
output unnecessarily long and impossible to work out for dataframes
with more than 5 - 6 columns. 

- Tweaking the color scheme of the editor, I made the huge mistake of
inadvertedly pressing the " use KDE colors", and now all color schemas
are exactly the same. There was no way to re-set the color schemas.
Removing and re-installing rkward didn't do anything, nor removing
configuration files or editing them to re=set the colors. The only
alternative was to completely reinstall KDE. This is a pretty annoying
behaviour, especially because pressing that button should not have any
effect on the pre-existing color schemes, nor should it change them

Looking forward to any comments and solutions
