64-bit build from source?

The compile and install seemed to go fine, but then I could not find
an executable. I expected it to be in /usr/local/bin. I looked also in
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/Current and found libraries
but no executable.

Any ideas?

See R for Mac FAQ 3 "Command line version of R".

Relative to where you built it it's
bin/R
and if you installed it as a framework then it's in
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/R

Cheers,

Dear R-Mac people,

If I build R (2.7.0) from source on a 64-bit Mac, will it be a 64- 
bit
app? I don't care about the GUI.........

Only if you specify '-arch x86_64'  My config.site is

CC="gcc -arch x86_64"
OBJC=$CC
F77="gfortran -arch x86_64"
FC=$F77

You probably want

./configure --with-blas='-framework vecLib' --with-lapack

for speed, and --with-aqua if you want to use the quartz() device  
(which
unlike earlier versions is fine from the command line version of R).

Many thanks,

Robert Terwilliger
