Max Toolbox and shell commands?

I've installed the Max Toolbox in MaxMSP 5.0.7, but it seems there is no way to call up the shell to make "@"-commands. When I press "cmd+r", nothing happens.

When I choose "toolbox-start" from the Windows menu, nothing happens.

Shortcut commands work fine (at least who don't conflict with other shortcuts), so the toolbox is activated.

I understand the toolbox hasn't been updated in a long time, but is this shell thing a bug other people are experiencing?

I think you have to press shift-R and the toolbox window must be opened (if you are on a mac).

Aha - you are absolutely right!

I think the documentation says "cmd + r" on Mac, which is why I got confused.
