<DIV><FONT size=2>I am trying to load ESS on my Windows 98 machine (Emacs
20.7) and need more explicit instructions than are presented at <A
href="http://www.r-project.org/">http://www.r-project.org/</A> the R
project home page. I would like to search the Archives of this ESS list,
but I don't know where they are. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>How do I access the Archives for this list ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>If anyone has VERY explicit instructions for loading ESS I
would appreciate that even more. I can't make heads or tails out of pretty
simple stuff. For instance, the help at R home page states</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>"<FONT size=3>In the ESS-5.1.x directory, edit the file
<TT>`Makefile'</TT> (only if you want to place the executables in other
locations; see LISPDIR and INFODIR) and then type: </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">make</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face="Courier New">make install"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>I don't even know where type this. Emacs
doesn't recognize "make" and MS DOS doesn't recognize it
either.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>Anyway, all advice is welcome.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3>thanks,</FONT></DIV>
