StatET: Connecting to a remote rterm instance

Dear WanderingWizard,

Is it possible to use Eclipse (StatET) to connect to an rterm instance
running on another computer?

Yes. You can launch, disconnect and reconnect to a remote R console.

It looks like it should be easy, but when I
select an R Engine it says "Connection failed to: hostname" everytime.  Is
there a guide somewhere?

There is Eclipse Help available in the StatET User Guide
(Help >  Help Contents > StatET..)
and additional information can be found (if needed) in
the archives of the StatET user list

searchable here

Best,
Tobias
