R help - Jan 2003 - running R inside of e-macs

I can''t start r inside of  emacs. When I try it says that it cannot
find .Rhistory and then it says " This program ( pressumably Rterm) has
performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.". How can I fix this
problem?

Have you installed ESS (Emacs Speak Statistics) ?
If not look at http://www.sciviews.org/_rgui/

Bye!

Dear Chris or Laura,

Not finding .Rhistory on first use is normal. Since you mention Rterm, I 
guess that you're using Windows. I've prepared some instructions for use
of
ESS with Windows (oriented towards XEmacs rather than Emacs), which are at 
<http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Books/Companion/ESS/index.html>.

Maybe these would be of some use to you.

John
