All, I installed R-2.10.1 with Readline=no. Now for some reason R does not recognize some key strokes like the directional arrows. I am not sure if Readline is the problem or not. I have tried .Cofigure with Readline = yes but it doesn't fix the problem nor do I really know if readline is the problem to start with. Has anybody else run into similar problems? Thanks, Steve [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

If that doesn't work, try: which R To see if the version of R being run is the one that you just compiled/installed.

It looks like I had to reconfigure with Readline=yes. When I installed R I had to set Readline to something and I picked "no" because I had no idea what Readline was.
