Numerics tested with klein.inp. Results are identical to what I’ve had before. Also tested with input (the provenance of which I can’t remember). It uses BFGSmax and results are ok. The 3D plot works as you described (Assuming mouse button 1 is the primary button). There is an issue with resizing a window (e.q. script window). Resizing with the mouse in the bottom righthand side corner the first time doesn’t seem to work. A second try does seem to work. (This also happened in a previous version). GTK-Quartz problem? Berend BTW. I’ve not encountered numerical issues with the R for Mavericks compiled with clang (as compared to the Snow Leopard R compiled with a gcc).
