Hi,

Do you also want to be able to type :
PROC UNIVARIATE ....
in R ?

What you described is *so* not a bug. You have not tried hard enough.

There are gui for R : JGR, sciviews, Rcmdr, etc ....
You can export results in HTML (package R2HTML), to latex (package xtable).
If the features therein are not completely satisfying your needs, you 
can contribute something, as you know it is open source.

Romain
