[Rd] Macintosh rm162 fails read.table() from sample (PR#2485)
Full_Name: Chris Yager
Version: rm162
OS: Mac OS 9.2.2
Submission from: (NULL) (67.117.145.197)
As a new user I was running A sample session from Appendix A of An
Introduction to R. 'mm<-read.table("morley.tab")'
failed. Note that the
prior command, 'file.show("morley.tab")', succeeded. Problem
does NOT occur in
version rm161.
NO other bug reports seem relevant.
Contents of my window follow, then contents of 'R.bug.report' follows
that.

[Rd] Macintosh rm162 fails read.table() from sample (PR#2485)
This is already reported and already fixed in R-patched. The relevant report is PR#2469. Neither that nor your report specified which Mac port this is, although I could guess from you use of `rm162'. If it is happening in the classic MacOS port then perhaps Stefano could patch it: he is aware of the problem.
