Hey Brian,

I was suspecting this argument ;) -- however, I think
from a usability point of view it should be possible
to re-set the default setting also somewhere *within*
the GUI if the GUI installer allows to set it. Maybe
in a different place?

That is where I found how to set it (for my current
workspace). Finding where I can set it *permanently*
was more difficult (especially when you never had
the need to mingle with R-profiles before).

That's why I decided to document it here in the
mailinglist just in case others have troubles
finding it, too.

Best,
Fridolin
