R cannot find gsl

Ken,

you may want to ask the package maintainer about that sort of  
questions. AFAICS the package works only if GNU Sci Lib is installed  
as a system library. The configure in the gsl package is just a fake,  
really, because it tests LIBS but doesn't modify Makevars  
accordingly, so it's useless (it tests the wrong thing with the wrong  
compiler). You can as well remove it and edit Makevars to match your  
configuration (you may have to add PKG_CPPFLAGS as well).

Cheers,
Simon

This may have been asked before, but I seem to have no real font  
control on my MacPro with R.

If I change it using Format --> Fonts --> smaller  it only changes  
previous lines and then reverts to large font on the command line.
I get similar behavior using the Show Fonts command.

How can I globally change the command window font consistently?

Thx,
Dick De Veaux

FWIW: gsl is now available as Mac binary from CRAN without the need  
for the GNU Scientific Library to be installed (as it is statically  
linked).

Cheers,
Simon
