Thanks Steve; this sounds promising. In my .emacs file I have ;; In Emacs 22, this has become necessary: (setq ess-eval-visibly-p nil) I recall this was needed otherwise *R* buffers became very slow to interact with. When I change that to t, I see the password echo... Stephen ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/ess-help
