I am not really a GUI-friend but certain tasks need a simple, clean and functional GUI (e.g. theme changer - would be nice to have). Anyhow, in the case of manage-R I think it is (currently) enough to have a more "functional" CLI (i.e. the features that, as you wrote, are comming - can't wait :-). If my head generates more ideas I'll post them. For example a quick idea: Let's say that by hitting Ctrl+K (or any other key) you get on the top 10 lines a "permanent" text-body which won't scroll-away as you run your code, scroll up-N-down, etc. There you can put... well, whatever might be needed from a user: usage shortcuts, etc. Kindest regards, Nikos --- Just for the records: I use a lot the JGR [1] to work with R. I like the separation of the Console (command line interface) and the Response panel (aka output) as well as the extra "Editor" window. You can play with multiple scripts/code, edit and save your code, run only selected code from the "Editor" window (though run one line at a time is missing) and more. But somehow, this Java-App makes my machine like a "Rocket about to launch"! In addition, the missing "direct-communication" with QGIS (which manage-R offers) is not attractive for QGIS users. --- [1] http://jgr.markushelbig.org/JGR.html _______________________________________________ Qgis-user mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
