All,

    Apologies if this was already answered... I couldn't find an answer that
specifically addressed Mac OS instead of either windows or linux.  I use
"aquamacs emacs" as my text editor.  It is essentially Xemacs with a GUI
that looks closer to standard Mac GUIs, as far as I can tell.  I installed
the GUI-friendly Mac version of R.  I can have R choose the aquamacs as the
editor of choice, but I cannot seem to figure out how to do any script
executions.  E.g., highlighting part of the script and then hitting CTRL-R
or something similar to get just a portion of the script to run.
    I would install ESS, since I know that is supposed to help emacs talk to
R, but I have no confidence that it either (a) works for the Mac (if so, do
I install the unix version?  if I do that, can I only run it on my Mac via
the unix command calls?), or (b) works with the aquamacs editor.  I don't
care about the editor so much, I could find a less fancy text editor.  But I
don't really know how to install ESS properly on a mac.

                           Thanks in advance!
                                       Mike
