Does anybody know a way to edit your command line arguments on the command line, other than deleting everything and re-typing? My user just want to be able to use emacs like commands - like you can do in a shell, and s-plus from what he says. I attempted to set up the emacs add-on, without much success, on a Solaris 7 box, but he doesn't really want that, he just wants the command line option. Thanks, Chris -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)

Briefly, you have to re-build R with readline support. I don't have the exact details at my fingertips, but I downloaded the readline libraries from the web, put them somewhere, and then named the location in R's config.site file. Or you can put them somewhere in the OS's standard search path for libraries. Either way, if R finds them during configure, it will compile R with support for editing the command line. For me, R[23]% ls local/lib/libread* local/lib/libreadline.a local/lib/libreadline.so.4 I believe that the file I downloaded from the web was named readline-4.2-sol7-sparc-local.gz -Don At 12:41 PM -0700 5/24/02, C Pelton wrote:>Does anybody know a way to edit your command line arguments on the >command line, >other than deleting everything and re-typing?

I use rxvt for the X11 terminal emulator, konsole works just the same.
