My TypingErr: ^50 is correct !
It occured in just the first part of 'demo(graphics)'.

Yes!! After moving .RData away to .old.RData the error vanished !
And yes, the .RData contained '... .Random.seed ... (seen by 'mc').
But no, it dated '3 Feb ...', thus worked with R 1.2.1. and not
about 0.63 .
Many thanks for your very prompt answers at sunday evening !!
