Hi! I faced a few problems with configuring ESS. I sent my questions to the ESS mailing list but recieved no replies, so i'm sending them here in hope someone will help me. I've just installed ESS and I'm quite a novice at it. In the docs it is said that setting "ess-insert-function-templates" to non-nil value will result in the edit buffer containing a skeleton function definition. It is also said there that the default value is t, which, as I assume, is non-nil. The problem is when I enter C-c C-d in xemacs and give a name of a non-existent object i don't see any function skeleton, just a new empty buffer. I tried (setq ess-insert-function-templates t) and also(setq ess-insert-function-templates " <-function( )\n{\n\n}\n") in my .emacs file but it didn't help. What is the problem? Thank you, vladimir PS At the same time, setting the variable "ess-source-directory" works just fine! -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- 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 !)
