Dear R users,

Some of you may be interested in the following announcement:

The Vim-R-plugin now works on Windows too. With the Vim-R-plugin we
can send commands to R from the text editor Vim:

http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=2628

Notes:

On Windows, the plugin copies the command that will be sent to R into
the clipboard.  Thus, if you have anything in the clipboard it will be
lost while using the plugin.

The plugin's zip file must be unpacked in the correct directory. I
cannot make a vimball of the plugin because it includes binary files
(bmp and png).

The plugin depends on the correct version of python being installed.
It was tested only with Vim 7.3, which requires python 2.7.

The plugin's documentation has many more details.

Please report any issues!

Best regards,

Jakson Aquino
