Hi Rodney,

> what dynamite editing features do you like?
I'm not looking for any dynamite editing features, I'm just trying to
isolate the standard keyword, variable, comment etc. highlighting and
indentation support that most Emacs programming language modes
including ESS support.

Yes, the interactivity is nice, but as I mentioned in a previous post,
I'm trying to get ESS working under GNU screen.  So far that hasn't
been successful.  I do have a different approach that gives me the
functionality that I'm look for and doesn't use the interactivity
features in ESS.

Cheers,
David
