Dear R-help, Apologies if this isn't exactly the right place for this question.
I am trying to run R in emacs using ESS. I have done this successfully many times - it works right now on my home computer in windows 7 and in ubuntu. The problem is that when I start emacs the regular splash screen doesn't show. In the mini-buffer I get the message "Finding all versions of R on your system". And then emacs just freezes up. I am running windows xp. emacs is located at C:\Program Files\emacs-23.3\bin\emacs I have an ess-5.14 folder at C:\Program Files\emacs-23.3\site-lisp\ess-5.14 R is located at C:\Program Files\R\R-2.13.1\bin\R or C:\Program Files\R\R-2.13.1\bin\i386\Rterm ? In my ~/.emacs file I have tried included only the following lines (require 'ess-site) and (require 'ess-site) (setq inferior-R-program-name "C:\\Program Files\\R\\R-2.13\\bin\\R") as well as many variations on the R path, including \, /, and going to Rterm instead. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
