When using up-arrow to retrieve the last executed command, or browse my history, each command becomes suffixed with a few lines worth of spaces. It's annoying having to backspace over this many spaces or manually move the cursor to perform edits. I'm currently using R 2.10.10 GUI 1.30 on Mac OSX 10.6. If I retrieve a command from my history using the history interface, the spaces are included.
Check "cleanup history entries" in the preferences.
I dont remember the root cause of this-I don't think it was brought upon by an upgrade. Here are things I've done to try and troubleshoot: reset all of the settings I could find from within R delete my workspace delete any hidden files delete the command history file delete my preferences
Hm.. are you sure? The above setting is on by default so if you removed preferences it should be back to "on" ... Cheers, Simon
completely remove/uninstall R upgrade from 32 to 64 bit R somewhere along the lines I missed a preference or a hidden file. Here's a screenshot showing the issue. The screenshot was taken immediately after pressing up-arrow. http://www.neilkodner.com/images/skitch/R_mystery-20091229-093157.jpg Hopefully someone knows what to do about this.
