FW: [R] ESS with Xemacs? [vs. Emacs, slightly off topic]

[Warnes, Gregory R]

Another way to add the mode line: use a wrapper script to do the work.
Something like

EDITOR=GnuEdit

GnuEdit contains:

	#!/bin/sh
	echo "Opening using gnuclient..."
	cp $1 $1.bak
	echo "# -*- mode: S -*-" > $1
	cat $1.bak >> $1
	rm $1.bak
	gnuclient $*
