Andy -

I'm sending this off to the general list, as a general FYI, as well.

You might have problems through a corp. firewall, but if you don't (I
don't; we run a SOCKS based firewall at FHCRC, and it took a bit of
time, but we solved it):

get a CVS client, any CVS client (that works with your firewall).

the repository name is:

        :pserver:anoncvs at ess.stat.wisc.edu:/home/anoncvs/src

so using a command-line cvs client (i.e. cvs as provided by Linux, or
built for unix), you'd do:

   cvs -d  :pserver:anoncvs at ess.stat.wisc.edu:/home/anoncvs/src login

password is anoncvs

then:

   cvs -d  :pserver:anoncvs at ess.stat.wisc.edu:/home/anoncvs/src co ess

I think that should work, anyway...

I think simply C-c TAB   should do completion, ONCE the inferior ESS
process has slurped the object database for names.  At least it works
for me under R (which morally ought to be identical to S-PLUS under
the other systems, at least from Emacs/ESS's viewpoint).

best,
