[ESS] New version of GNU Emacs Modified

[Erich Neuwirth]

I had no problem with the Mac version.
Hint
To activate off-babel mode for R, you have to modify .emacs
I do
;; active Babel languages
(require 'org-install)
(org-babel-do-load-languages
 'org-babel-load-languages
 '((R . t)
   (calc . t)
   ))

Let me ask a naive question.
Emacs always starts up in the upper left corner of my screen.
Is there a way of setting the position in .emacs?
