I was working on windows xp for a while and now i am back to linux ( not
sure which kind but I can find out if that helps ) and i just have two
questions that are
really environment R questions rather than R code questions.
 
1) i use emacs ( or xemacs if need be ) and i vaguely being able to cut
a line or a region in an emacs window and then paste it at my R prompt
so that it ran. Could I be mistaken 
or is there an  option I need to set in my environment to be able to do
this. It doesn't seem to work and I would prefer to avoid learning ESS.
 
2) I can make my linux window ( where i am working in R )  quite wide
but if i do a print or a head on a dataframe of say 8 columns , it
doesn't know that there is all this extra space 
in the window and it ends  up putting the columns on top of each other
instead of straight across and it's hard to read the data this way ? Is
there a way to make it know that it has a lot more room than it is
using.
 
 
Thanks a lot.
