Hello everyone, 

I am not sure if I am at the right place to put this question, so don't hesitate
to redirect me to the correct mailing list. My question is about the editor
window under the R GUI on Mac OS 10.6.2. Before the upgrade to R 2.10.1 with GUI
1.31, I was able to call for the help topics from the spotlight-like help field
in the upper right corner of the editor window. Now it only returns me a blank
box, which still slides as before, but the help content is missing. Is this a
frequent problem or is it related to my specific computer? And if it's a general
issue, is there some solution please?

Thank you for the replies or possible indications on where can I find more
hints.

Please read the posting guide before submitting bug reports, especially if you don't even know that it's the proper way!

I cannot reproduce the problem, so please supply the details as we kindly ask you to - at the very least sessionInfo()... Also the proper place for Mac-related questions is R-SIG-Mac (see "About R" in the GUI).

Thanks,
Simon
