similar to: R-1.2.0 and command recall/edit

As an inveterate user of vi, I was pleased to stumble on how to use it for editing R commands. When an interactive R session is launched under unix, the command line editor most likely defaults to emacs. Typing <esc>,<ctrl>+j will switch this to vi editing mode (see below for possible exceptions). excerpted from readline(3) manpage: vi-editing-mode (M-C-j) When in emacs

One of my test domUs is a opensuse 10.3 PV domain, and it has a /boot/grub/menu.lst file. pygrub is used as bootloader. With xVM 3.1.4, the arrow keys can be used in the pygrub screen. With xVM 3.3-unstable, the arrow keys don''t work for me any more. What I''ve found out so far is that: - gnome-terminal, xterm or dtterm are running with "vt100 application key

Quick summary: - I got command line editing to work (thanks to all who responded to me), - but now my ``m'' key won't work in R (??!!??!!??), - and I can't find how to get command-line editing to use vi syntax. More detail: This posting consists of (1) a summary and thanks, and (2) some new questions. Summary and thanks: =================== I was having trouble

I've looked through the FAQ and can't find anything about this. I'm working on a Sun machine, running Solaris 2.7. I'm a new R-user; have been using Splus for millenia, and finally decided it was time I got going with R. So I downloaded R, installed it, fiddled about a bit, and found that command-line editing was absent. Scrounging through the documentation some more, I saw it

Since keystrokes were brought up, this seems like a reasonable time to make the following seemingly simple-to-implement feature request: Navigating a multi-level menu structure seems to require use of UP/DOWN/ENTER/ESC. It would be easier to quickly search/navigate if it could be done with fingers stationed on the arrow keys so that the eyes can stay focused on the screen. Current

I'd like to log all console I/O for an entire session while maintaining normal console I/O. I'm working in Windows98, RGui, R1.1.1. The sink() function is not the answer since it diverts output from the console. In the RFAQ I see references to "...save the contents of the interaction buffer to a file..." and in the R-Help Archive "...just save the console output...". I

Hi, I have installed R1.6.2 on a Sun Sparc workstatioin 60 under Solaris 8. I' m using csh, tcsh or bash- shell. Unfortunately, it is impossible to use the "arrow-up" key on Sun's German keyboard to repeat a R command by using this key. Always following syntax error occurs: ^[[A Does anybody have a hint ?

Hi all, Are there any plans to add more functionality to command-line editing and history editing on the command line? In MATLAB (I know, comparisons are odious ...), you can type "p" and up-arrow on the command line and scroll through the recently entered commands beginning with "p". This is a very useful feature and something that I believe is not replicated in R. Please

Hello everybody! /(First I need to apologize becase I mussunderstood the prupose of libvirt-list and I sent this mail there instead of this list)/ I would like to introduce myself, as this is my first contact with libvirt mailing list (although I've been reading quite a lot of documentation).

Hi. Using Rterm v2.2.1 on WinXP, is there a way to interrupt a call like repeat { readline() } without killing the Command window? Ctrl+C is not interrupting the loop: R : Copyright 2006, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing Version 2.2.1 Patched (2006-01-01 r36947) <snip></snip> > repeat { readline() } ^C ^C ^C ^C On Unix it works. The problem seems to get the

Hi, I'm attaching a patch that improves the keybindings for keyboard resize and move. In both cases, the action can now be cancelled by Esc, moving the window back to the position and size it had before the action was initiated. Furthermore, for the resize case, the keybindings now work more like metacity, in that when initiated, it starts with the cursor in the middle of the window. The

Dear R'ers, when I e.g. install the integrate2.2-2 package under R1.1.1 (debian2.2) atlas is linked into the library: Installing package `integrate' ... libs gcc -shared -lc -shared -o /usr/lib/R/library/integrate/libs/integrate.so adapt.o adapt_callback.o bsrl.o flfm.o nxprt.o symrl.o wht.o -L/usr/local/lib -lf77blas -lcblas -latlas -lg2c -lm -L/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-linux/2.95.2

Hello everyone, Thanks to the people who so kindly responded to my earlier query about how to get R to retrieve my previous command when I hit the up-arrow key. Several people pointed out to me that in order to enable this feature I need to re-install R with the GNU readline library. My question now is: how do I accomplish this? Can anyone tell me what changes I need to make to the

Hi, I asked yesterday about a problem with x306 and IRQ sharing, didnt get much info, now, i was playing with lspci, and see something strange, lspci -v shows me the TDM400P card is on IRQ 7, and the SCSI card is also on IRQ 7, lspci -bv (from the man - b - shows "bus-centric view, as seen by the BUS and not by the kernel) shows me the TDM400P is on IRQ 5, why does the kernel puts it on

Hi, I'm trying to write my own remote shell program, It simply connects to a remote server then copy the sock fd to stdin, stdout and stderr. And it works. But I found several problems: 1. It doesn't handle characters like ^A ^E or tab (any bash/readline stuff) -> openssh itself doesn't seem to incorporate readline, so the magic is not on readline 2. If I run

Hi all, I am not sure if this feature exists in the R-console command line prompt: In Matlab, if I want to enter a command which is similar to what I have entered before, I can enter a few prefix, then press "->", the previous command that matches with this prefix will then appear on this command line, and it saves a lot of our time. For example: > abline(lm(new~old)) >
