R help - Apr 2004 - [R ESS]

Dear ESS/R People:

I installed ESS as per the directions on the ESS page from
the R-Gui Page.

When I start Xemacs/ESS, the scratch window comes up but
no R.  Also, the special function button do not come up.

Any clues as to what I'm doing wrong, please?
R for Windows


Thanks in advance,
Sincerely,

If the R bin folder is on your path (something like c:\Program 
Files\R\rw1091\bin), and ess is loaded, then it should be as simple as 
M-x R (I typically type ESC x R <enter>, because "Alt" is in an
awkward
place on my laptop).  If that doesn't work, then ess probably isn't 
being loaded.  Check the docs for recommended settings on the 
.xemacs\init.el file.
