R help - Sep 2004 - edit(crash)?

I found that the edit command kills my linux/R/emacs environment
sometimes.

How should I report this bug?

Start by explaining exactly what goes wrong and what your setup is.
E.g. are you using ESS?

Figure out how to make the crash reproducible, then see if you can
figure out what causes the crash.  Try it out on the 2.0.0 alpha
release to see if the bug has been fixed.  If it looks like it hasn't,
use bug.report() to report all the details.

If you can't make it reproducible, it probably won't be fixed.  If you
can, and it's an R bug, it probably will be:  but it may well be an
ESS or Emacs bug.
