I was trying to do what is on page 70 of John Chambers' new book namely
using trace to invoke the browser by doing
trace(zapsmall, edit = TRUE)
but , typing above at an R prompt, I get
trace(zapsmall, edit=TRUE)
sh: EMACS: command not found
Error in edit(name, file, title, editor) :
problem with running editor EMACS
I looked in the archives but maybe it's a problem with the keywords I
was using. If anyone could tell me what I need to do, it would be great.
I'm thinking that I need to put something in my .Rprofile but I'm not
sure what. Thanks.
Oh, I use linux and my sessionInfo is below and I am using GNU Emacs
22.1.1. I usually use ESS and EMACS together but for this I figured it
would be simpler to start from the R-prompt so that I was aligned with
John's book as much as possible.
