Good evening,
Someone how I've gotten my system into the state where I get the
simple error message after starting R:
"R-initialize-on-start: Text is read-only
self-insert-command: Text is read-only"
At which point I can no longer send commands to the repl or type them
in directly.
I'm a little hesitate to ask more than:
"Is anyone else facing this?"
Because I haven't seen any current posts as such.
My problem is that I literally have absolutely no clue what I changed,
and I need to start digging.
Any ideas on where I might move forward here?
What I have done:
1. Updated ess
2. Commented out .Rprofile and .Renviron.
3. Removed all ess personal configurations; only a require to 'ess-site is made.
4. Removed all Customize settings that were set.

R version, 3.1.1.
Was a little suspicious that my custom prompt was screwing up the
reader and causing the lock.
I also checked if read only mode was locked, and it was not.
Another option, I am running in-development code, this is to be expected.
Kind regards,
