The problem you see is probably due to the cursor not ending up in
the right place.  Type C-g to end the current attempt at whatever it
is doing.  Then manually move the cursor to the end of the *R* buffer
and press the enter key.

Please report back to the list whether this works.  If it is repeatable
and others also see this behavior, we will have to either patch the ESS code
or modify John Fox's instructions.
