[ESS-bugs] Small mess in *R* buffer after M-x R

[Steve Gutreuter]

I am running Gnu Emacs 21.3.1 and ESS 5.3.3 under Red Hat Enterprise
Linux 4.  Whenever I start an inferior R process (M-x R), I end up with
a small mess in the *R* buffer, as follows:

> if (!exists("baseenv", mode="function")) baseenv <- function() NULL
options(STERM=iESS', editor='emacsclient')
> >

The problem seems to be otherwise harmless; after I hit return the
inferior R process subsequently behaves normally.

Thank you for any help you might be able to provide.  ESS is an
excellent package and I find that I am quickly becoming addicted to it.
Your generosity in sharing ESS with the world is fantastic.

Sincerely,
Steve Gutreuter
