Dear list members, I've had helpful feedback from a number of people, several of whom experienced some problems getting my XEmacs/ESS configuration files for Windows to work properly. I will, of course, make changes based on this feedback, but the following information may be of use in the interim: (1) It's clear that my instructions and installation procedure were insufficiently

Dear list, Not strictly R ... In R on Xemacs with ESS (R-2.0.1, Xemacs-21.4.15-r3, ESS-5.2.6) on gentoo-linux when I use k<-edit(k) or fix(k) to change a small vector k <- c(1,2,3,4,5,6) the opened window (called '6b8b4567') appears not to be connected to the gnuclient and I'm able to edit the file but has no instructions in the minibuffer and C-x # gives '6b8b4567 does

I have successfully used XEmacs on my home PC for several months. On 8/25/04 I downloaded R version 1.9.1 (rw1091) from one of the R mirror sites, XEmacs installer (setup.exe) from <http://www.xemacs.org/Download/win32/>, and Jim Fox's latest configuration files (fox-ess-config.zip) from <http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Books/Companion/ESS/> to my Dell laptop, which is

Dear list members, I'm experiencing a variety of intermittent problems with GUI-related commands (e.g., for dialog boxes and graphics-device windows) in R for Windows running under XEmacs/ESS. I'm using version 1.6.1 of R, version 21.4.9 of XEmacs, version 1.02 of ESS, and various versions of Windows, including 2000, 95, and 98SE. The problems don't occur in every circumstance,

I am having trouble with ESS+R. I don't know if it is an ESS problem or an R problem, so I'm posting to this mailing list in the first instance. I am using R 1.6.2, Windows XP (latest updates installed), XEmacs 21.4, and ESS 5.1.21. I have experienced the same problem under Windows 2000 and recent versions of Emacs and ESS (though my current Windows XP installation is from scratch, and

Sorry for the cross-post. Not sure where the problem is... A while back I posted an R function to R-help: cd <- function (dir = tclvalue(tkchooseDirectory()), saveOld = FALSE, loadNew = TRUE) { stopifnot(require(tcltk)) if (saveOld) save.image(compress = TRUE) setwd(dir) rm(list = ls(all = TRUE, envir = .GlobalEnv), envir = .GlobalEnv) if (loadNew &&

I'm trying to use ESS & xemacs under debian linux testing and KDE. My problem is that I didn't find any document in the internet explaining a **step by step** session with R and xemacs. The (wrong) procedure I follow (to no avail!) is: 1) I start R in a terminal window; 2) I start xemacs and open a file with the extension .R (test.R); 3) I issue M-x R RET and I can see an Rd new

Hi all, I am running R 2.0.1 under Windows XP in German.

What is going wrong? I can not start S. M-x S gives "no matching" How can I configure XEmacs for STATA 8? Thanks for your help. M

Please ignore (and excuse) my previous message - it is incomplete. I'm trying to get R and ESS to work with Xemacs on a newly installed SuSE 9.0 system. Is some setup required beyond installing the rpms?

Hi all, I 've just reinstalled from the scratch my Windows 2000 (Italian version) on a formatted HD, because I like to clean the environment from time to time (say once a year). I'm currently using XEmacs-21.4.13 and R (rw1091) and Xemacs is configured as described in http://socserv.socsci.mcmaster.ca/jfox/Books/Companion/ESS/ess-xemacs.pdf The problem is that the command help.start()

Probably wrong group for this, but a quick question. I've just switched from emacs to Xemacs. In reinstalling ESS 5.1.19 I keep getting the following error when loading Xemacs: "Error in init file: Symbol's function definition is void: w32-using-nt" I've debugged the ess-site.el file, which is where the error originates from. The line causing the difficulty is:

I have been using the document written by John Fox titled Sn Introduction to ESS + XEmacs for Windows Users of R. It's a very nice document and I went through it carefully but I got an error when I finished it and launched XEmacs. The error is "cannot open load file : ess-site". So, I did more investigation and it seems like there is a folder Program

Hi, When I start Xemacs version 21.5.28 (in Unix), using the init.el: (setq bell-volume 0) (setq sound-alist nil) (setq grep-find-use-xargs nil) (require 'ess-site) I get the following error: (1) (initialization/error) An error has occurred while loading $home/.xemacs/init.el: Cannot open load file: "ess-site" Backtrace follows: signal(file-error ("Cannot open

running R 2.9.1 on Windows XP. Formerly used Tinn-R but it has been acting strangely lately and I haven't been able to fix it, so I am trying to learn ESS. I have Xemacs 21.4.19. I have ESS configured, I think, as per John Fox: An Introduction to ESS + XEmacs for Windows Users of R John Fox McMaster University Revised: 5 February 2006

Hi there; I have the following problem --- Xemacs cannot correctly parse a path to file when I load it. I have the following error, reported by Xemacs: from ess-parse-errors: Error in file(file, "r") : cannot open file `u:US-mortalityjuttalexible.r While the correct file path should be: u:\US-mortality\jutta\flexible.r Any ideas? Many thanks for your help. -Serge

I am having some trouble getting reftex, in particular the bibtex related features, to work properly in xemacs when editing text in Sweave files. I have added (defun Rnw-mode () (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

Hello, please excuse me if this is not the appropriate mailing list, but I'll give it a try! I recently switched from using Emacs 20.7.1 to XEmacs 21.4, both on cygwin / MS W2K. On Emacs the ESS 5.1.17 was working well, but now, when calling R from within XEmacs, it first asks for the working directory, then says "R process is not running". The ESS buffer holds the
