Re: Launching R executables within custom shell environments

Hi Tyler,

The problem is not really about calling R on remote computers, but of
calling R from a wrapper bash script which sources a different set of
environment variables and system executables than those which can be seen
by emacs. I only suggested the remote functionality because that seemed to
me maybe the best approach, but I'm not sure, maybe a wrapper script can be
passed directly to ESS somehow.
