Hello all, since we're on the topic of R-editors. I am using emacs/ess on a unix workstation (to interact with R and have been having a little problem. I usually write the R commands I need to run in a separate buffer then copy and paste them into the *R* buffer for evaluation. The problem is, if any command is spread over multiple lines emacs/R hangs when I paste it in the R buffer for evaluation. if I use a debugger to see what's going on in both programs they're usually waiting on a select statement (input/output). Anybody has had to deal with a similar situation. any advice for a workaround? both emacs/ess are relatively recent versions (installed a few months ago). I tried using ess-eval-buffer/region instead of cutting and pasting and the same thing happens for me. many thanks -- Murad Nayal M.D. Ph.D. Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biophysics College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University 630 West 168th Street.

1. I've never seen this behavior, ever. Do you get the same with C-c C-r (highlight region, then C-c C-r sends to the R process in Emacs). Or, if you use C-c C-n to step through the lines....? 2. ess-help at stat.math.ethz.ch might be a better place to send this.

May be putting the comment character, #, at the end of the lines that are
continued will solve do the problem. As in,
a <- data.frame(cbind(v1, v2, # 1st line
v3, v4, # 2nd line
v5))

Try eval-line&step C-c C-n in ESS (no cut and paste), and omit the semi-colon at the end of the statement.
