I see now that the link I gave for configuring this is ESS doesn't give the whole enchilada. Here is what I currently have in my emacs config:
(defun my-ess-execute-screen-options (foo) (ess-execute-screen-options)) (add-hook 'inferior-ess-mode-hook (lambda() (setq-local window-size-change-functions '(my-ess-execute-screen-options)))) This should give the desired functionality.
