[R] emacs, Mac OS X, R

[Meinhard Ploner]

Hi!

Since August I am using emacs on my Macintosh to edit the R objects. I 
have installed R 1.9.1, Mac OS X 10.3.5 and GNU Emacs 21.2.1. However 
there are some issues I haven't resolved:

a) switch the caps lock key to the meta key (and when this is not 
possible, switch the alt/option key to the meta). The switch should 
work only within emacs!

b) having different colors for the code, i.e. comments, commands, 
strings, ...

thanks in advance!
Meinhard
