All, Apologies if this was already answered... I couldn't find an answer that specifically addressed Mac OS instead of either windows or linux. I use "aquamacs emacs" as my text editor. It is essentially Xemacs with a GUI that looks closer to standard Mac GUIs, as far as I can tell. I installed the GUI-friendly Mac version of R. I can have R choose the aquamacs as the editor

Hello! I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.11 on a G4. I use the "R" command, straight from a terminal, because the "GUI" is slower, and I've never liked GUIs anyway. I tried to set up my environment to use the vi editor, but it always tries to save it in wierd things like this: "/private/tmp/RtmpWIhhuo/41a7" 13L, 161C written Sure I can "cp" it from that

I will have a blind student in my AP Statistics class this year. I'm thinking about using R as his calculator. It seems like it's core text-in text-out nature may match screen reading software well. And I'd like to explore directing visualizations to tactile graphics output. I'm wondering if anyone could give me suggestions (people, websites, organizations) where I could discover

Dear all, I have written some R source program with many thousands of lines. I didn’t insert line breaks automatically or manually for the long lines. But now I would like to edit the source code in Emacs/ESS to make it more formal as a package. One of the major problems here is how to break the long lines automatically. Emacs auto-fill-mode only works for the lines you are typing in currently,

I often use browser() when debugging a function. After entering browser, I would find it very useful to be able to cut-and-paste a chunk of R code to the browser (or use ess-eval-region in Emacs). An inconvenience, however, is that both blank lines and comment lines will exit the browser. The man page for browser says nothing about exiting the browser via ENTER or via a line that begins with a

Which is the best editor for .R files? I currently use kate on my linux as it has R highlighting and allows me to split the window into two: in one I edit the .R file and in the other I have a shell so I run R and can easily copy and paste the code. There are some features that I don't like and I am having a look on some alternatives. I've heard wonders of emacs with ess but I am a

Hi, I'm interested in using mtext(), but with the option of having multiple colors in the same line of text. For example, creating a line of text where: Red is red and blue is blue How do you create a text argument that lets you do this within mtext()?

Do any of you know any simple programming editors for R scripts which offer basic colour-coding and bracket-matching facilities? Dregging through scripts to find a missing comma or parentheses is something I'd rather do less of... Jon Minton [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear all Is it possible to get basic colour highlighting for inputs and outputs in the R terminal? I am looking for something similar to what GUIs provide, such as JGR and (I think) the Windows R GUI: colouring all inputs in red, and all outputs in blue. All this in a colour-aware console (in my case, on Linux). I've been looking into xterm256 and highlight, but I am sofar unable to do with

Hi , I am programming on a windows system and have problems using notepad which is my main editor.Each time I try to open the editor from the R IDE, R crashes. So I always have to copy my codes from notepad and paste in R to run them. CAn someone tell me if I am doing anything wrong or is there a better editor(freeware) which I could get. thanks cilver ===== ===================== Sylvie B.

Dear all, (Sorry if the question has already been answered.) Could someone please suggest a good text editor for writing R sources ? (I know emacs exists ... but I find it a bit heavy). I use crimson (http://www.crimsoneditor.com) which is small and simple, but the R syntax seems not to be supported. Thanks for any advice

For reasons that are best known to myself [ ;-) ] I have a value of .Random.seed saved (via dput()) in a file ``.Random.seed.save''. In my .Rprofile I have the lines: .Random.seed <- dget(".Random.seed.save") Junk <- dget(".Random.seed.save") print(all.equal(.Random.seed,dget(".Random.seed.save")))

Hello, I use: R version 2.9.2 (2009-08-24) Copyright (C) 2009 The R Foundation for Statistical Computing ISBN 3-900051-07-0 on Ubuntu 9.10, I usually run R from ESS (5.4 on current Unbuntu) from Emacs-22.2.1. But I also tried the following from the console and it gave the same results. I have a data file containing lots of European characters, French, German, Italian and so on. I can read it

Dear all, I'm starting to learn R, but I'm already programing for a while, using ViM as editor. Therefore I'd like to be able to use R together with ViM. My question now is, whether there are already people out there knowing how to do this in a similar easy way as with Emacs, and if those would be willing to share this knowledge. I did already research on the web on this topic,

Fedora Linux 8 R 2.6.1 Intel CPU I am trying to get started with R under Linux. It has been suggested to me that I run R under EMACS. I have looked at the CRAN website, and several other places to try to find an RPM for EMACS and, if I need it for ESS. I have not succeeded in finding one. Can someone tell me where to go to get the RPMs? If anyone would have a suggestion for an editor other than

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

Hello everyone Can you please teach me how to save my homework as .R file? I write my code in RGui. When I tried to save my work, the RGui only allows me to save it as .RData. By the way, after I save my work as .RData, I cannot reopen it. when I open it, only one message comes out as following: "ARGUMENT_ignored_." -- View this message in context:

Hi, I am a little lonely as R users in my group. So, I would like to know which editor is the most used in the R community. This post is some kind of survey. Personally, I use Emacs with ESS, It permits to : - open more than one R session - split the emacs editor as many part as you want. - use a lot of keybindings. ... I also tried Rkwards, Scilab (windows), JGR etc... but they are not
