[R] R --no-readline ?, was: history and readline, Mac OSX
Hi, By chance I came across an iESS buffer showing that R had been started with this option: R --no-readline This seems to prevent the use of history() which I noticed earlier. Why is this start option chosen, and where can I change this?

This is off topic here. You should post on the ESS help list.
