[ESS] Installing ESS under EMACS

[Richard M. Heiberger]

Your email came without content, so I am replying to the subject line.


Download the current ESS from http://ess.r-project.org/
Click on Source
Download either
ess-5.3.3.tgz
or
ess-5.3.3.zip

Unzip it to some sensible place,  I use

cd c:/emacs
gunzip < /path/to/downloaded/ess-5.3.3.tgz  | tar xf -
mv ess-5.3.3 ess

Add the line

(load-file "c:/emacs/ess/lisp/ess-site.el")

to your ~/.emacs


For more information, read the Installation section in file
