Hi,
First, let me say that Red-R looks like a cool idea, and I'll be very interested to see how it develops in the future. I am already considering it as a possible R interface for the non-programmers that I work with, to use for their analyses.
Second - a small suggestion for the Read Files widget - below the window that displays the data, there is a list of the columns with 'drop-boxes' to specify the class of each column. Using these requires a couple of clicks (open the drop-box, select the vector type)
Since there is only short set of options for vector type (factor, integer, numeric, character, logical), I figured it would be a lot more convenient to lay out the options in a row, and use 'radio buttons' (I think they are called), to specify the vector type?
Block O factor X integer O numeric O character O logical
...so changing the vector type needs only a single click on the right radio button:
Block X factor O integer O numeric O character O logical
For a large dataset, this could make setting up the vector types much quicker...
Just a thought... :-)

Dear Alec,
Thanks for the suggestion. We'll try to implement the change in the next release.
