still cant start ESS process with ESS-SAS

[Christopher Fonnesbeck]

Thanks for the help.  SAS is on my path, becasue I can launch it from any 
terminal in any directory.  BTW, I neither have a .sas or .emacs in my 
directory.  ESS seems to load fine, just getting a process going seems to be 
a problem.
