Do you need something more than a simple ssh connection to a remote host in which you run R (trivial when the server is Linux)?
My advice is to run R in a "screen" session on the remote host (it protects from sudden disconnections). Then you have a window on your screen with the R command line, which you can copy/paste your scripts to (from whichever editor you want) as if it was running locally. Of course, on-screen graphics works (if you forward X... if you see what I mean) but it depends on connection speed (in LAN no problem, through internet it can be a pain, I usually don't use it then) and you need an X server running locally (if the 'client' is windows, cygwin highly recommended). A real R 'server' could be very useful though. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list 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.
