Subject: [Rd]  bug in windows GUI/script editor (PR#8288)
Message-ID: <000401c5e583$af873f40$f4e66081@duncanlt>

Here's how I can reproduce this bug, running under MDI under WinXP

1) start Rgui
2) open a script window using File>New script
3) click back in the console window and open a help window (e.g. by typing
"?merge") in the console window
4) click in the close box of the help window
5) click in the close box of the script window (which was visible even
though the script window was largely behind the console window)
6) click on the File menu ..........CRASH!!! "R for Windows GUI front-end
has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the
inconvenience."


Cheers,
Duncan
