Problem with tcl/tk and Rcmdr - urgent help required
Dear Ben, It seems clear that the problem is in loading the tcltk package. To confirm that, does library(tcltk) fail? I'm not very knowledgeable about Mac OS X. I do have a MacBook, with OS X 10.5, however, and encountered no problems installing and running the Rcmdr package. Have you seen the R Commander installation instructions for Mac OS X 10.4, at <http://socserv.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Misc/Rcmdr/installation-notes.html>? If not, maybe something there will help. I'm copying this response to Rob Goedman <goedman at mac.com>, who has provided help before.

As many others, i am haveing problems loading the Rcmdr package with
Macbook
running Tiger 10.4.11. X11 version updated to the last one after having manually installed. I have also installed (obviously) the Rcmdr package with all dependencies. However (damn) i keep having the following answer to the library (rcmdr) command:
library (Rcmdr)
Carico il pacchetto richiesto: tcltk Loading Tcl/Tk interface ... Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath,

myself)
and both R and X11 are in their last updated version. I have also tried restarting after updating X11. Can someone try to help
me?
i have recently swithced to mac and am having an important exam soon. Thanks to anyone. Ben -- View this message in context:
