R help - Sep 2004 - WARNING: terminal is not fully functional

Hello,

first trials to run R from inside of Emacs repeatedly gives me:

----------------------------------------------------------------
 > ?sink

WARNING: terminal is not fully functional
-  (press RETURN)

-----------------------------------------------------------------

Seems like this is going to happen to all help calls using a questionmark!
Any idea how to change this, maybe this isn't subject to change at all!???





Thanks

Thomas

Odd. You'd get that sort of error if you tried to run a pager in a
shell buffer, but ESS should intercept it and dump the help page into
a separate buffer. Any chance you're not actually running ESS?

You might look at library(lattice) for some relatively natural solutions for
your problem.

Hi, Thanks all (Andrew, Peter, Sean)!

By the way, I looked at the "xyplot" in lattice library. It can draw
"a"
versus "b", conditioned on "c". But it draws curves in
different panels and
there seems no control on symbols.

I will try "points".

Many thanks again,

Sun
