R help - Jan 2002 - New R on Mac user fails to run MASS

My R installation (Mac OS9.2.2) is working, but when I try to run the
examples from Venables & Ripley (p. 6):

This looks as if you're trying to use the S-PLUS examples rather than the
`R Complements' that are available from the MASS website.

S-PLUS has some features that R lacks, and others that R implements
differently, and the `R Complements' help work around this.
