Hi,

this is a possible (minor) bug report for R.app GUI:

Installing a source package from R.app GUI fails when the path to the package \
contains a blank. For example, after a click on "Install..." button and selection of \
package eyetrackR_0.12.tar.gz, the following error indicates that the argument passed \
on to gzip was not correctly escaped.

gzip: /Users/jochen/Projects/R.gz: No such file or directory
gzip: library/potsdam/eyetrackR/eyetrackR_0.12.tar.gz: No such file or directory
ERROR: cannot extract package from ‘/Users/jochen/Projects/R \
library/potsdam/eyetrackR/eyetrackR_0.12.tar.gz’

Everything works fine from Terminal.app using R CMD install eyetrackR_0.12.tar.gz 

Best, jochen
