I think there's some setting of env vars that are necessary to run R
that are (somehow) automatically taken care of when the /Library/
Frameworks/R.framewor/{Headers,Libraries,etc.} link to the appropriate
Versions/* directory.
If you want to run from the terminal, I think you might be able to
(easily) do what you're after by using the RSwitch application that
you can d/l from here:
http://r.research.att.com/
I'd try to launch R (I guess 2.8 will come up first). Once it's up and
running, use RSwitch to pick version 2.7, then open another terminal
and launch R again (should be 2.7 now).
Alternatively, if you want to run using R.app (the GUI), I *believe*
you can download the 2.7 and 2.8 GUIs (from the same r.research page),
and rename them from R.app, to R27.app/R28.app and launch them that way.
HTH,
-steve
