I think Kasper means Aquamacs Emacs. It comes with ESS as well. http://aquamacs.org/ I would recommend Aquamacs over Carbon emacs. It is the easy to use and the developers have gone out of their way to ensure that the user experience is consistent with Mac OS X. It's a better OS X citizen than Carbon Emacs. To get ESS working on Aquamacs you need to first load the ess package with the command: M-x R-mode (Alt/Option + X, then type R-mode and press enter) will start ESS then M-x R (Alt/Option + X, then type R and press enter) will start R inside an emacs buffer. You'll need to have Darwin X11 running to get proper graphics working. As far as I have experienced with Aquamacs, you don't need to play with any configuration files to get it work. You could also get limited graphics without X11, by using the quartz () device. Due to the way R and Emacs interact, you won't be able to interact with these plots. -Vince _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Mac mailing list [email protected] https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-mac
