Hi all, Could you point me to a script editor in Linux that will allow me to a somewhat easy pasting of section(s) of an R script or function into R for execution? Something like WinEdt+RWinEdt macro in R for Windows? (My time is a bit pressed. I haven't succeeded in my attempts to install ESS for XEmacs. No doubt due to my confusion and lack of competence. I am abandoning it for the moment.) I can't see a somewhat easy way of running sections of my scripts and functions, written in WinEdt+RWinEdt, with the default vi. Or is there? Those who do not use vi or ESS, what do you use? Would you mind giving me some pointers? Just in case: A fresh installation of Linux Mandrake 8.0 on i586, running R 1.3 Thanks a lot, Gindo Tampubolon University of Manchester -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)

Being similarly effected by emacs I find glimmer an OK text editor (linux version of textpad). I generally use the source() function to run scripts. -----Original Message----- From: Gindo Tampubolon [mailto:gindo.tampubolon at man.ac.uk] Sent: 30 November, 2001 11:20 AM To: r-help at hypatia.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R] Script editor for R on Linux Hi all, Could you point me to a script editor in Linux that will allow me to a somewhat easy pasting of section(s) of an R script or function into R for execution?

There is an ESS mailinglist and archive at http://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/ESS/.

Try pico. There's no substitute for/comparison with emacs, though, IMHO. By the way, you probably know this, but just to be sure: you don't have to have ESS to use (x)emacs for editing R scripts. So if you're pressed for time, just use (x)emacs. -- Shravan Vasishth Dept. of Linguistics, OSU 222 Oxley Hall, 1712 Neil Ave. Columbus, OH 43210-1298 USA URL: http://ling.ohio-state.edu/~vasishth -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
