Agree with everything that Duncan said, except that I use bzr or darcs instead of subversion, and of course, ESS/Emacs. One nice thing about ESS/Emacs is that it will "clean" a transcript buffer. So if you are working in the inferior process buffer (where you shouldn't be, but that's for another day), then you can write it to disk as a transcript file, and "clean" it into a script. best, -tony ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
