How to install Tcltk.dmg on mac? I didn't see an answer to this question, so here goes: I'm assuming you're using the latest R-2.10.1? Check out the instructions from the macosx install page: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/ Specifically the block of text after the R-2.10.1.pkg link: """This package only contains the R framework, 32-bit GUI (R.app) and 64-bit GUI (R64.app). For Tcl/Tk libraries (needed if you want to use tcltk) and GNU Fortran (needed if you want to compile packages from sources that contain FORTRAN code) please see the tools directory.""" So ... go to the tools directory: http://cran.r-project.org/bin/macosx/tools/ and get the tcltk *.dmg from there. I'm guessing it will solve your problems.
