similar to: getting ess/emacs to link with a remote instance of R

Dear R-help, Apologies if this isn't exactly the right place for this question. I am trying to run R in emacs using ESS. I have done this successfully many times - it works right now on my home computer in windows 7 and in ubuntu. The problem is that when I start emacs the regular splash screen doesn't show. In the mini-buffer I get the message "Finding all versions of R on your

I have 3 years of experience with R and have an interest in becoming a better programmer so that I might someday be able to contribute packages. Other than R, my only experience was taking Lisp from Daniel Friedman in the 1970's. I would like to learn either C or C++ for several reasons: To gain a better concept of object oriented programming so that I can begin to use S4 methods in R. To

After the discussions about appropriate editors under Windows to use with R, I have managed to install Emacs, XEmacs, and ESS under WinNT 4.0, and these work fine. It's not necessary to compile anything to use R with ESS, just to install Emacs and ESS, and do a few modifications in some files. XEmacs is also easy to install but apparently ESS cannot run with it (confirmed by a message by Tony

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:

Dear R users, I downloaded an ess-5.2.2 package and hope to use emacs as front to work with R. I modified ~/.emacs and start R by M-x R. But I found when I quited the R session, it still asked me to save the work space or not. I added inferior-R-args with "--save" args. But it seemed that it had no effect. Can you tell me how to pass the arguments other than --no-readline to

Dear members, I have spent some time to make clear how I could write R programs from within EMACS using the ESS package, under Win98. Unfortunately, I have found this not quite clear for Windows 98 (though a lot of details are provided for UNIX). I have tried to create a .emacs file with a command such as (load "PATH/ess-site.el") and also added a "PATH=...\rw1010\" line in

Dear R-help, I would like to use R 1.3.0 under emacs-20.7. with the help of ess-5.1.19 in the windows system. I downloaded the ess-5.1.19 and tried to follow instructions strictly. 1. cd to a directory where you keep emacs lisp files -------------> no question 2. Retrieve the compressed the zipped file `ESS-5.1.19.zip' from one of the FTP. -------------> no question

Hi! I have R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5, GNU Emacs 21.2.1 and ESS 5.2.3. I installed today the ESS by not changing ess-site.el, but creating .emacs in $home with the single line: $ cat ~/.emacs (load "/usr/local/lib/ess-5.2.3/lisp/ess-site") If I start now emacs and then R (with M-x R) then I get: > options(STERM='iESS', editor='emacsclient') but using fix() oder

Hello, JIT compiler interferes with internal R completions: compiler::enableJIT(2) utils:::functionArgs("density", '') gives: utils:::functionArgs("density", '') Note: no visible global function definition for 'bw.nrd0' Note: no visible global function definition for 'bw.nrd' Note: no visible global function definition for 'bw.ucv'

I'm a rank beginner with R, and I'm stumped at how to get it to work with Xemacs under Windows XP. I'm afraid there are some VERY basic questions I have here. Yes, I did read http://ess.r-project.org/Manual/readme.html. Both R and Xemacs are installed and working. The current ess files are installed in a subdirectory of my Xemacs directory. I added the R bin directory to my

Chris, For what it is worth, I made two more tests: - on my system 'M-x R' as well as the suggested-in-the-ESS-documentation 'M-x ess-version' both work whether or not I have my ~/.emacs -- so somehow system path must work - I have the .el files in the default directory: /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/elpa-src/ess-18.10 - They are also symlinked each into

The latest ess and elpa-ess 18.10-1bionic0 packages for ubuntu leave ess unable to find initialization files when it is invoked from R via M-x R. I've found a workaround by creating a soft link: cd /usr/share sudo ln -s /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/elpa-src/ess-18.10 ess but this may be a widespread problem. It appeared on each of the three computers on which I updated the packages, and

Hi folks, Debian 504 64-bit I found following document; http://www.biostat.wisc.edu/~kbroman/Rintro/ Whether it is the right document for installing Emacs+ESS and R so that R can run on Emacs? TIA B.R. Stephen L

I can't get Emacs to automatically do syntax highlighting of Sweave files. I have followed Friedrich's suggestion for code to insert into my .emacs file. The complete section from my .emacs file is given below. When I load a *.Snw file, font is white until I press M-x, then the first code and document chunks get highlighted, but not the rest of the file. Latex and Noweb menus are

I'm not an Emacs user, but the ESS-help mailing list (see ess.r-project.org) might be able to help with this.

Hi, if you run a server in your Emacs session you can use emacsclient to send a lisp call to the server. There's an example here: https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/54156/how-can-i-query-emacs-from-a-separate-process/54161#54161 Regards, Martin Gregory On 11/10/23 11:18, Duncan Murdoch wrote: > I'm not an Emacs user, but the ESS-help mailing list (see >

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

Hi all, I don't know if this is the proper place to ask this, but I am trying to configure emacs/ess on Ubuntu 8.04 to run the way described for ESS and Xemacs in Windows (John Fox's guide). I installed ess as directed at http://ess.r-project.org/Manual/ . Under Windows I could use Emacs/ess fine (but I am obviously a novice at emacs), but am having trouble doing so in Ubuntu. At

Hi, I decided to try emacs and ess with R, but to no avail. How are these things suppose to work with R - or work, period? I downloaded the latest windows versions of each and installed them as the documentation says. But then the documentation for ess says to add (require 'ess-site) to /.emacs and restart emacs. Where is /.emacs???? I opened the ess-site.el file and it also says to
