Re: unicode character in aquamacs

This is getting silly, I have now upgraded aquamacs to the latest version,
and also installed emacs from Vincent Goulet's website, added preferences
such as,

(setq default-file-name-coding-system   'utf-8)
(setq file-name-coding-system           'utf-8)  ;; set in term/mac-win.el
(setq default-buffer-file-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-default-coding-systems             'utf-8)
(prefer-coding-system                   'utf-8)
(set-language-environment "UTF-8")       ; unicode

but it still returns an error,

 plot(1, main=expression("\u03B3"))
Error: invalid \uxxxx sequence (line 1)

for both aquamacs and emacs.

Oh well, I'll have to live without unicode I guess. On a side note, opening
a r file in emacs, and hitting C-c M-b yields a "Starting evaluation..."
that never seems to finish (and I'm not sure how to kill it!). Is this
because I should start a R process first?

Many thanks for bearing with me,

Best,

baptiste

Interestingly, it says something different in the terminal or in emacs.
That's probably it then. In the terminal,

Sys.getenv('LANG')
         LANG
"en_GB.UTF-8"

while from emacs,

Sys.getenv('LANG')
LANG
  ""

and this is irrespective of whether I use ESS or run R from a buffer in bash
mode. Indeed, bash within emacs says,

bash-3.2$locale
LANG=
LC_COLLATE="C"
LC_CTYPE="C"
LC_MESSAGES="C"

ess-help-mode fontification

Is ess-help mode fontified by default?  Mine is not, so I poked around in
ess-help.el but didn't see anything there.

I added this to .emacs

(add-hook 'ess-help-mode-hook
   (lambda ()
     (set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-defaults)
          '(ess-R-mode-font-lock-keywords t))))

That did some fontification, but not strings and comments.  How do I get
those too?

can you put this in your .emacs and see if it helps (before ess is
loaded)

(setq ess-r-args-electric-paren nil)

You're right, the problem is now identified as my incompetence to set up
emacs properly on Mac OSX. I'll probably try the aquamacs list (that is, if
I can resist much longer the temptation to revert to a more intuitive text
editor).

Thanks again everyone for the ideas,

baptiste

Re: unicode character in aquamacs

This is not that hard to fix. THe problem is that GUI applications on  
OS X don't care at all what settings you have  
in .bashrc/.profile/.bash_login. There are two solutions
   1) Figure out how to set it in Emacs (which may be hard)
   2) set up an "environment.plist" which is a file that essentially  
functions as .bashrc for GUIs.
Google environment.plist or see the links in the previous email.

Note that I am sure that the settings in the *shell* in Emacs can be  
different from the settings for other buffers.

Re: unicode character in aquamacs

Excellent! That's a relief, and a good thing to know.

defaults write ~/.MacOSX/environment LANG en_GB.UTF-8
defaults write ~/.MacOSX/environment LC_ALL en_GB.UTF-8

did the trick (not sure both were needed, one needs to log out / log in
again to see the effect).

Thank you all,

baptiste

How to kill a SAS batch job

Hi all, I have two questions related to killing SAS batch jobs which were
submitted with ESS.

1.  Is there an ESS command or some easy way within Emacs to kill a SAS
batch job?  Say a program I submitted with ESS has been running longer than
I think it should and I just want to kill it, what's the easiest way to do
this?  Just as I have F3 bound to submitting the code, it would be great if
I could have some other key bound to killing it.

2.  When I exit Emacs, is there a way to automatically kill all running SAS
jobs which were submitted through ESS?  If I have another copy of Emacs
open with its own submitted SAS jobs, I don't want those to be affected,
and similarly if I've got an xterm window open with SAS jobs running.

Thanks very much for all your help -- this list has been a great resource,
Daniel
