R help - Feb 2004 - Sweave and Xemacs on Windows2000?

Hallo!

Trying to configure Xemacs to work with .snw files on windows 2000.  Tried to do
it how it is described in the FAQ for Sweaves.


When starting xemacs with and Snw file
*ESS* buffer contains hundrets of lines and the few last ones.

 (ess-loop-timeout . 500000) (inferior-ess-primary-prompt . ^)
(inferior-ess-secondary-prompt . ^) (comint-use-prompt-regexp-instead-of-fields
. t) (inferior-ess-start-file) (inferior-ess-start-args .
inferior-SAS-args-temp) (ess-local-process-name))

And no syntax highlighting in the *.Snw buffer
??

The xemacs files in my home in .xemacs directory look like

init.el
(load "D:/prog/XEmacs/xemacs-packages/lisp/auctex/tex-site")
(load "D:/prog/XEmacs/xemacs-packages/sweave-site.el")

.emacs (either in home or in home/.xemacs/ does not matter.)
(defun Rnw-mode ()
  (require 'ess-noweb)
  (noweb-mode)
  (if (fboundp 'R-mode)
      (setq noweb-default-code-mode 'R-mode)))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Rnw\\'" . Rnw-mode))
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.Snw\\'" . Rnw-mode))

(setq reftex-file-extensions
      '(("Snw" "Rnw" "nw" "tex"
".tex" ".ltx") ("bib" ".bib")))
(setq TeX-file-extensions
      '("Snw" "Rnw" "nw" "tex"
"sty" "cls" "ltx" "texi"
"texinfo"))

Hi!

Sorry for bothering. Got it working.

Hello,

on Linux it works out of the box, but on Windows I had similar problems
(Xemacs-21.4.13 and Win2k). First, you must be sure, that .xemacs is in your
home directory. I don't use the standards of win2k and set the
environment variable HOME=D:\

My simple .xemacs/init.el file looks as follows.
