[ESS-bugs] [ESS] Getting SAS to work

[Cameron Hooper]

I tried your suggestion but it did not work for me. I reduced my .emacs 
down to the following:

add-to-list 'load-path "~/emacs")
(load "~/emacs/ess/lisp/ess-site")
(load-library "ess-site")
(save-excursion  ;;workaround  for keys stolen by
   (switch-to-buffer "unlikely-name.sas")  ;;workaround  
ess-sas-local-pc-keys
   (sas-mode)  ;;workaround
   (define-key sas-mode-local-map "\C-c\C-r" 'ess-eval-region)    
;;workaround
   (kill-buffer "unlikely-name.sas"))  ;;workaround

I assume when you say "after the ess-site.el" you mean after the (load 
"~/emacs/ess/lisp/ess-site") line. Have I misunderstood?

I am unsure if I should have both the `load' and the `load-library' 
lines so I tried all combinations of keeping both and eliminating each 
one in turn. I still have to change the key definition in the 
minibuffer each time I restart emacs.

I also replaced (load-library "ess-site") with (load-library 
"~/emacs/ess/lisp/ess-site") but this didn't fix the problem.
