Re: [External Email] Re: When the R window opens, sometimes it is side-by-side with my .Rnw file. I want them one above the other. It seems unpredictable

Karlo, can I put that in my .emacs file? I'm not yet familiar with
init.el.  In fact, I can't find such a file on my system. Would I need
to create it?

Thanks.
