Professor Paul,
 
Thanks in advance.
 
What's name I can use to save this in the site-start.d directory?
 
Once again thank you very much for the time you have given.
 
Regards,
 
Deb

Dear Everybody:

I have some startup commands that I like with ESS R and they address
this problem.  This starts R in its own emacs frame.  It does some
other things that make Emacs more familiar to students.
For convenience, Shift-Return in the R code file will send the command
to the Emacs buffer (which is running in its own frame).

I do not like to have horizontal splits, and there's a command here
that encouraged Emacs not to use them.
(setq split-window-preferred-function nil)
This doesn't prevent you from inserting splits if you need them, but
you don't get them so often automatically.


I keep this set of commands in the site-start.d directory.  Here's the
one I've used lately:

;;;;;;;;;;;;;
;;Set up emacs-ess for Emacs with other things we like at KU.
;;;;;
;;;;;; This file is automatically loaded by emacs's site-start.el
;;;;;; when you start a new emacs session.
;;;
(require 'pc-select)
(pc-selection-mode)
(custom-set-variables
'(cua-mode t nil (cua-base))
'(show-paren-mode t)
'(text-mode-hook (quote (turn-on-auto-fill text-mode-hook-identify)))
'(transient-mark-mode t))

;;;
(setq inferior-ess-own-frame t)
(setq inferior-ess-same-window nil)
;;;
;;;;;create a new frame for each help instance
;;;
(setq ess-help-own-frame t)
;;;;;If you want all help
;;;;; buffers to go into one frame do:
;;;
(setq ess-help-own-frame 'one)

(setq ess-ask-for-ess-directory nil)
(setq ess-local-process-name "R")

(setq split-window-preferred-function nil)



(setq ansi-color-for-comint-mode 'filter)
  (setq comint-prompt-read-only t)
     (setq comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-input t)
  (setq comint-scroll-to-bottom-on-output t)
  (setq comint-move-point-for-output t)

(defun my-ess-eval ()
  (interactive)
;;  (my-ess-start-R)
  (if (and transient-mark-mode mark-active)
        (call-interactively 'ess-eval-region)
    (call-interactively 'ess-eval-line-and-step)))

(add-hook 'ess-mode-hook
          '(lambda()
             (local-set-key [(shift return)] 'my-ess-eval)))
