I agree that this should not crash R although your didn't really describe what that means.
It's the big "report this to Apple" crash. The whole app goes down.
I did notice that an exclamation point was in there near the end, because my editor break long lines at "!" and that is not a valid numeric content as far as I know.
These seem to have been introduced by the mailer - they don't exist in the original data. I wasn't sure if I could send an attachment, but I'll try that now.
I'm the only one who got that zipped file and I'm not planning on opening a potentially executable file on this machine.
I think you are misunderstanding what is a zip file ...
So I'm now wondering if there are two components to my misunderstanding: 1) My experience with Windows is that zip files are sometimes delivery vehicles for executable files and htat the OS can be configure to auto- execute such files on decompression without further intervention. I worried that MacOS might have the same potential. 2) Am I also then misunderstanding what sorts of files the mailserver accepts and passes on to the list subscribers? -- David Winsemius, MD West Hartford, CT
