I haven't tried parallels. I was actually surprised by how well
virtualbox works now. It used to be really slow - now it is quite
workable. It has something like a coherence, but it sounds that
parallel's is better.

I put up a virtualbox image that runs TeXmacs+R (with syntax highlighting...) at
https://mega.co.nz/#!dhlVhDjS!VcqY6klTTX9S9VJUyzNbTnwcuT99zYNCfXYFYbRTnGc
And I also made some images that have different versions of R on them,
so that I can get the interface working even on fairly old version of
R (for now, I think 2.10 and older works ok)
We could put up a collection of images like that for TeXmacs development....

You mean this:
http://www.texmacs.org/tmweb/download/winqt.en.html
Do you know if this is for win XP or win 7? Or maybe it doesn't matter....

Thanks!
