memory allocation error

Try reading the rw-FAQ and/or the actual help file the message mentions!
It says nothing about those flags.

rgui.exe --vsize 16M --nsize 1000k

This is just one method I've found, and in Mr. Maindonalds' manual is the
same information.

Hint: when you are asked to consult a help file, the information is there

Yes, it mentions the size of my virtual memory, but then what?. If I change
the settings, what's going wrong now?

Hint hint: the flag is called --max-mem-size

Could you explain me this a little bit please.

R is the only program that asks me for memory space. I think I'm not
managing a very big dataset (1200 observations, 6 variables). Even with the
base datasets I find the same constraints.

Thanks in advance
