David, thanks for your helpful response. Now i figured out that I do have boot command and do not need to install any additional packages. With regards t R GUI, I guess I would like to use it, but I could not figure out how to install it. For now I downloaded R-2.15.1.pkg file, which I could instal as a regular Mac app.
If you are using it "like a regular R app" then you _are_ using the R Mac GUI. Only if you were opening Terminal.app and then typing R at the command line would you be using the unvarnished version of R. With the GUI running you have menu items including "Packages&Data" and the Package Installer in that menu is very handy.
There is also Mac-GUI-1.51.tar.gz file, but when I open it it's just a folder with bunch of files, and I could not find there anything which would look like dmg file. If you could share any tips here, I would be very grateful. Sorry for very basic questions, but as you see, I am quite new to R and also do not have eng background, so it's kind of foreign environment for me. But I really want to get to grips with R, since it looks as very promising application.
