Dear John,
To keep the session as simple as possible, this time I did not configure R Commander to send the output to the R console.
This is what I did.
1. Load the file/workspace using R Commander.
What does this mean? What is a "file/workspace"? How did you "load" it with the R Commander? Can you share the "file/workspace" so that I can replicate what you did?
2. Read the data set using R Commander?s ?Data set? button.
As I said in my earlier response, the R Commander's "Data set" button doesn't "read" a data set -- it chooses from among data frames currently in the user's R workspace.
3. View the data set using R Commander?s ?View data set button?.
4. Close the ?View data set? window.
5. Try to read the same data set using R Commander?s ?Data set? button.
This is the error message I got today. It was displayed in the R Console, not in the R Commander output window .
Error in structure(.External(.C_dotTcl, ...), class = "tclObj") :
[tcl] bad window path name ".3".
Additional information:
I tried to ?Refresh the active data set? from the ?Data? -> ?Active Data set? menu, and got the same error message, but with a different number at the end.
Error in structure(.External(.C_dotTcl, ...), class = "tclObj") :
[tcl] bad window path name ".6".
I saved the file with a different name, but when I tried to read the file with the new name I got a similar error message.
Do you really mean a *file* -- that is stored on your computer's file system -- or a data frame in the R workspace?
In either case, if you can share the file or data frame, creating a reproducible example, I'd be much more likely to be able to figure out what's happening.
Best,
John

Dear Jos?,
Please keep the discussion on the r-sig-mac list rather than replying only to me, so that other potentially interested individuals can follow it. I'm therefore cc'ing this response to the list.

Thanks for your prompt reply, John.
I clicked on the "Data set" button to read an R dataset. Then I clicked on the "View data set" button to view it, and closed the view window. I tried to read the same file again, and that is where I get the error message.
That's different from what I understood. When you use the "Data set" button in the Rcmdr toolbar you can choose among data sets that have *already* been read into the workspace, assuming that there are more than one.
I still can't duplicate the problem that you report. I can repeatedly select a data set using the button, and each time it becomes the active data set and the data viewer window is refreshed.
I had the same issue when I tested with R Commander and R, without RStudio.
Yes, I saw that and I can't duplicate the problem in either context.
Best,
John
I will check again on Monday with the file you used.
Best,
Jos?

I'm afraid that I can't duplicate this problem. I tried with the current CRAN version of the Rcmdr under RStudio, reading a text file repeatedly into the same data set. My session info is

The output that the Rcmdr generates each time in the RStudio console is
Rcmdr> Duncan <-
Rcmdr+ read.table("/Users/johnfox/Documents/Courses/2017-2018/ICPSR/Lectures/Duncan.txt",
Rcmdr+ header=TRUE, sep="", na.strings="NA", dec=".", strip.white=TRUE)
RcmdrMsg: [3] NOTE: The dataset Duncan has 45 rows and 4 columns.
Of course, there's a warning each time that Duncan will be overwritten, and the dataset in the viewer is automatically refreshed. That is, AFAICS everything works as it should.
You can find the data file I used at <https://socialsciences.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Books/RCommander/Duncan.txt>.
Can you elaborate what you did and ideally create a reproducible example of the problem?
Best,
John

Hi,
I am using R Commander in combination with RStudio. I configured RStudio to display the output on the RStudio console.
If I open a file in R Commander, then view the data file in R Commander and then try to read the same file again using R Commander, the following error message is displayed in the console and I cannot read the file with R Commander:
Error in structure(.External(.C_dotTcl, ...), class = "tclObj") :
[tcl] bad window path name ?.29?.
The message is always the same, except that the number at the end changes. Here are a few more examples:
Error in structure(.External(.C_dotTcl, ...), class = "tclObj") :
[tcl] bad window path name ".35".
Error in structure(.External(.C_dotTcl, ...), class = "tclObj") :
[tcl] bad window path name ".51".
Error in structure(.External(.C_dotTcl, ...), class = "tclObj") :
[tcl] bad window path name ".56".
Initially, I thought there could be a problem between R Commander and RStudio, but I got the same error message under the same conditions when I tested using R Commander with R alone (without RStudio).
The files seem to be fine, since I can access them directly with R or with RStudio.
My computer is an iMac (27-inch, late 2012)
MacOS High Sierra version 10.13.6.
R version 3.6.1
RStudio version 1.2.5001
R Commander version 2.6-0
XQuartz 2.7.11
Thanks.
