Did you mean Tab here? I.e. you type "libr", you press Tab, and R autocompletes that to "library". Sounds like readline and/or terminal problems. How was R compiled and installed on this system? What terminal are you running R in, and is the $TERM variable set correctly? Does the target system have the correct termcap definitions for this terminal? Perhaps https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html could be of some help to you. -- Best regards, Ivan ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
