Fwd: R graphics windows freezing

Brian,
I can replicate the problem you encountered on a Windows computer. So far I
don't have better suggestion than leaving the R graphical window open. It
should not interfere with other tasks in python shell, when you finish
working in the python shell, exit it (ctrl + Z) will close the R graphical
window.

Liming.
