Both tmux and screen are far too "screen-oriented".

Hi, [ ... ] I just want to report that these problems seem to not occur when I use `multi-term' as the terminal mode in emacs. There, I seem to see 'Wuff

We have just released ESS 15.09-2. After release of 15.09 on Sept.24 and a first patch release 15.09-1 on Oct.26, this is another patch release for 15.09. It fixes small glitches with (the new more flexible and powerful) indentation engine. In ... [More] addition - it improves Roxygen editing (line wrapping; filling); - knitr/Sweave interface cosmetics, notably a new M-x ess-swv-weave-PDF (bound to M-n v ('v' for 'v'iew)). - SAS and coda/BUGS improvements - prevents infinite loops in some border cases All in all only small changes, but really a reason for a Christmas gift release of ESS - one day after the R 3.2.3 "Wooden Christmas-Tree" release.

Hi Vitalie, Vitalie Spinu <spinuvit< at >gmail.com> writes: Thanks for following that up even when travelling. Well, this was more meant as a comment to your suggestion to ask for R to change the prompt. I was testing this running R ... [More] outside of emacs and there is this difference. So, I guess that is what the reply from R's side would be: There is a different prompt already. As to your suggestion of setting `ess-eval-visibly' to t and using the trailing '+' as an indicator: I think the speed loss is too much to trade in for the better GUI experience. I have set `ess-eval-visibly' to nil as well. Ideally, I think it would be the much better experience if the spinning wheel would - appear only if R was busy and was not waiting for more user input - appear directly in the R buffer instead of the mode line I understand that this is not straight forward to achieve. But Christmas is close and so wishlists mights be written...

Sorry for late reply (I am travelling). You are probably having the default `ess-eval-visibly` set to t. I think most of people switch to `nil` eventually because the default is very slow as it sends the code line by line. Indeed, when ... [More] `ess-eval-visibly` is t, we probably can reliably track the prompt. But then I don't understand your original problem. If you see trailing + that means your code is incomplete, otherwise the program is busy.

I find that after upgrading my mac to El Capitan, I am unable to run commands to import files such as "assD<-read.csv(file.choose())" and it will just get stuck on the loading page until I force quit R. I have tried reinstalling R 3.2.2 but this ... [More] didn't help.

That's what we are tracking right now - difference between + and >. That's not enough for what you need. Both of the following produce same result ## complete: { Sys.sleep(10) } ## incomplete: { Sys.sleep(10 The current tracking ... [More] is not even enough for what it was intended for. For example evaluating the following paragraph will not show as busy: Sys.sleep(.1) Sys.sleep(100) And that's the most annoying side of the current system. I see only one way for a partial fix - sending a NOOP before every eldoc or completion command to check for actual status of the sub-process. Not sure how reliably it will work though.
