[ESS] TclTk problems with tkentry()/limmaGUI under XEmacs/ESS

[Dr Mike Waters]

Andreas,

I don't know if you looked at this webpage. It might be that what is
available directly within the R environment itself is not available within
Xemacs/ESS and requires additional setting of environment variables.
