[kepler-users] Installing Kepler on Lion: finding R

[tao]

Hi, Karin:

How did you add the path of the R to the PATH variable? By modifying the 
.bash_profile? If you had done this way, it would not work.

Since OS X windows applications receive environment variables from the 
your environment.plist file, you have to set the R path to PATH in 
~/.MacOSX/environment.plist file in order to let Kepler know the R.

If you don't have the ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist  file, you may open a 
terminal and type:
$>mkdir .MacOSX    
$>touch .MacOSX/environment.plist  
$>vim .MacOSX/environment.plist
Paste the following lines to the file:

{
        PATH = "$PATH:your_R_bin_dir";
}

If you already have ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist, you may type:
$>open .MacOSX/environment.plist
In the editor interface, set variable(key) PATH with the value of 
$PATH:your_R_bin_dir.

Note: please replace your_R_bin_dir by the real value.

More information about editing environment.plist, please see:

After saving the file, you must restart your computer. Then it should work.

Thanks,

Jing
