JGR (pronounced 'Jaguar') is a GUI for the R programming language, licensed under the GNU General Public License. It is a universal and unified Graphical User Interface for R.

JGR is a cross-platform stand-alone R terminal, and can be used as a more advanced substitute to the default Rgui (on Windows) or to a simple R session started from a terminal. It provides a friendly R-console complemented by a spreadsheet-like data editor and by a script editor featuring syntax highlighting, autocompletion and (MS Excel-style) arguments-suggestions for entered functions, and direct command transfer.

Although unlike Rcmdr, Rattle or PMG, JGR provides no statistical menu-driven facilities, recently a GUI on top of JGR has been developed. Currently alpha (as of July 2009), Deducer aims to be an intuitive graphical data analysis system in some respects similar to SPSS or Minitab.
