[ESS] Fwd: ess-timeout

[Meinhard Ploner]

Thanks to Richard and Martin!!

I load all the objects (~1000) in a loop like:
for(file in dir(..., pattern = "\\.R$", full.names=TRUE))
               source(file)
as they are *.R - files. This is slow but i don't like *.rda.

the multiplier on ess-loop-timeout worked fine, thanks!
