Hi,
-----Original Message----- From: r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch [mailto:r-help-bounces at stat.math.ethz.ch] On Behalf Of Mahdi Osman Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2005 11:57 PM To: r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch Subject: [R] ESS I can not start R proccess or ESS from within XEmacs. What is going wrong?
Do you have a HOME directory? AFAIK, XEmacs is going there to check for the file .emacs or for .xemacs/init.el. If you don't have one, I think XEmacs is checking C:\ as the default location. In my init.el-file I have the following lines: (load "u:\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\ess\\ess-site") (add-path "u:\\XEmacs\\xemacs-packages\\lisp\\ess\\") (require 'ess-site) Most likely you have to modify them according to your own settings. ;-) You also have to modify the file ess-site.el In my version of ESS you find the important lines you have to change at about line 325. (If I remember correctly, the location in previous versions of ESS was about line 250). My line for R looks like: (setq-default inferior-R-program-name "U:\\R\\rw2001\\bin\\Rterm.exe") ; msdos systems
I can not start S. M-x S gives "no matching"
Try M-x R
How can I configure XEmacs for STATA 8?
Probably the wrong mailing list?
However, if you have ESS corretly configured, you can open any *.do file
and XEmacs switches to ESS[STA] mode and supports syntax highlighting
and probably a lot more (I haven't used Stata for a while now - thanks
to R).
Hope this helps.
Best,
Roland
