R help - Jul 2003 - R-WinEdt problems

Hello,


I've done most all the various steps outlined in a
recent posting to the mailing list archives
(and in the help files) to load and run R-WinEdt.  I
can get it to run fine but I am not successful in
getting it to interface with RGui (1.6.2, not
minimized).  I try to use the R-line, R-source,
R-paste buttons with no success.  [All the necessary
*.edt files appear to be in the proper directories.]

I've done everything except modify the rprofile or
the options().  Is that necessary, and if so how
exactly do I do that?  And, if I do modify them how
do I restore them back to their default settings?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Right click on your WinEdt icon and go to "Properties" menu-item. In
the
"Target" box look for something like, 
"[PathToWinEdt]\WinEdt\WinEdt.exe -C="R-WinEdt" -e=r.ini"

If you don't find something like this, make the change and try it.

* It may be better to have a new icon for R-WinEdt on your desktop with the 
above modified "Target", and use the existing icon for other work. Not
sure how
to solve the switching problem, given that there is a R specific 
initialization file being used.

Maybe you have changed R-WinEdt's mode?
Use R-WinEdt's menu "R" to "Set R -mdi mode" when you
are using R in its
default configuration.

No.

Thanks, that seems to have worked.  I created a new
R-WinEdt shortcut and specified the path you suggest
below with quotes around R-WinEdt, such that the end
becomes:

-C="R-WinEdt" -e=r.ini

I also verified that the R mode was set to mdi.

Thanks so much.
