Hi, Sorry to semi-hijack this thread, but this is a question that's been burning for a while and, well, I think it's still relevant to this discussion :-)
I tried using Emacs/ESS when I first started playing with R (and bioconductor). My problem with it was that I believe R is started in the same thread/process as emacs, so if I ran an R command that took a long while to complete, I couldn't switch back to my source buffer and keep messing around with my code while the R process was doing whatever it was doing. Is this something that can be worked around?
