JGR crashes on loading TCL/TK Mac Lion

[Myles Gartland]

I installed yesterday on my laptop and everything went great.

Went to install on my work desktop (iMac Lion). I followed http://www.deducer.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.MacOSXInstallation.

When I launch- the JGR console starts but gets stuck and crashes on the "loading the TCL/TK interface". It crashes- then I get a JGR quit unexpectedly while using the tcltk.so plug-in. 

I tried to delete all the R , JGR etc on my Mac and start over with a new download. I also tried the launch from the 32 and 64 bit. They both crash with the same message.

JGR does not require tcl/tk, and should not be calling it on loading.
One reason this could happen is if your Rprofile.site has some custom
code in it, but that should not be a default behavior. You can try to
install tcl/tk on your system and see if that solves the issue.

The solution worked great. Really like Deducer thus far (had no idea it existed). Wish you all the best success with growing it. I will be recommending it to all my colleagues that are moving over to R.
