Darwin-Aqua R-devel

I made a script RAqua with

#!/bin/sh
exec "/Applications/RAqua.app/Contents/MacOS/RAqua" "$@"

and put it in /usr/local/bin.

Now RAqua starts up the Aqua GUI, as expected, but library(tcltk)
says there is no tcl/tk support (and I do have the frameworks).

Also the menubar is blocked, and output from help() and library()
is written to the Terminal window.

But I guess you already new all this. Very exciting.

In previous builds I used, by the way,

configure  
--with-tcl-config=/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.framework/tclConfig.sh  
--with-tk-config=/Library/Frameworks/Tk.framework/tkConfig.sh  
--enable-R-shlib --without-x --with-aqua --with-blas='-framework  
vecLib' --with-lapack TCLTK_LIBS='-framework Tcl -framework Tk'   
TCLTK_CPPFLAGS='-I/Library/Frameworks/Tcl.Framework/Headers  
-I/Library/Frameworks/Tk.Framework/Headers'

to make absolutely sure that AquaTcl/Tk was used.

I've been able to build a very primitive Aqua GUI for Darwin R.

This version as minimum event handler support but at least you can  
drag around the quartz device.

You need to download the RAqua.app.sit archive from  
http://www.economia.unimi.it/R/


You need to unstuff it and put inside your system Applications folder  
(i.e. /Applications)

If you click on the RAqua icon nothing will happen (in reality  
something happens if you have a look at the Console log window).

To run this version of R you should type the following from a term  
window


/Applications/RAqua.app/Contents/MacOS/RAqua


If you want to build this version of R you should download tomorrow  
R-devel tgz as I have just committed the files via CVS.
This version has been configured with

./configure --enable-R-shlib --with-blas='-framework vecLib'  
--with-lapack --with-aqua

if you have aquatcl/tk it should work fine. I'll try it tomorrow as it  
is too late now :)
