Dear R Community, I recently switched to a Mac (10.6.5), and have installed Textwrangler to run code to R. However, I can't install the syntax highlighting file because I can't find the directory: "~Users/username/Library/Application Support/TextWrangler/Language Modules/". Is there a different location I can place the syntax highlighting file? Scott [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

If the "TextWrangler/Language Modules" directory doesn't exist in the Application Support directory you can create it.

This is quite some time ago, but I just had the same problem and the folder in the most recent version of TextWrangler. Right-click (well, Ctrl-click) on the application and choose 'Show Package Contents'. Then you can find the folder Language Moudles and include the plist script for R syntax highlighting in new Textwrangler versions as described. -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Textwrangler-Languages-Folder-tp3082124p4609217.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

The directory specification you offered doesn't really make sense, because on the Mac the tilde is generally a synonym for /Users/username, so one of these is likely to be more successful: "~/Library/Application Support/TextWrangler/Language Modules/" "Users/username/Library/Application Support/TextWrangler/Language Modules/" If there is documentation that you were following that suggested the form you used, you should contact the authors and suggest they fix it.> [[alternative HTML version deleted]]And you need to find the place in your mail-client that switches to plain text. -- David Winsemius, MD West Hartford, CT
