I'm using AquaR version 1.8 from within both versions 5.0.2 (OpenOSX) and 5.7 (CVS). It works perfectly simply by calling /usr/local/bin/R from within GRASS, although when I try and run system() commands from within GRASS 5.7 I get iconv library version mismatch errors:
> system("g.list rast")
dyld: g.list version mismatch for library: /usr/local/lib/libiconv.2.dylib (compatibility version of user: 5.0.0 greater than library's version: 4.0.0)

Hamish,
I have done this, but how does one invoke the "Aqua R" from within GRASS using the 'StartR' application?

3) Install R-statistics[2]
This is optional, but useful for geostats. Click on CRAN, choose a
mirror, click on R Binaries, macosx, and download RAqua.dmg. Double
click on that package and install tcltk, libreadline, and finally
RAqua. This installs the OSX port of R to Applications/StartR....
Why did you not install from fink?
This is not at all a criticism, but rather a legitimate query.Two reasons:
a) I figured the R team had already gone to the trouble to Aqua-fy it,
and the "offical" port would be better supported and more
Mac-integrated.b) The r-base package isn't yet present in either Fink's stable or
unstable "current-10.3" branch.I still think the Fink project is brilliant though.
It has been my experience that one of the major sources of confusion
with OSX is that there are several options for installing unix
software (and the fact that some of them work better for particular
packages than others).Welcome to the wonderful world of UNIX-powered. Confusing versions of
the same thing for over 30 years. Still, I'd rather have 3 chances of
finding a version that does exactly what I want versus 1 generic version
that only partially does. That doesn't mean you can't put together an
intergrated package with the components pre-chosen by an expert of
course.And if you think the tyranny of choice is bad on OSX, you should give
Linux a try... eg:[Debian]$ apt-cache search editor | wc -l
