hi ScionForbai
yes i know auctex, but i do not know Kate, as I mentioned, I compile
LatEx documents from Emacs and also run R from it (thanks to ESS).
Regarding this that you said

is something that I would not like of Kate, therefore not with much
encourage to try Kate.
I want something like Emacs (of course including auctex and ess), but
not Emacs. Something like Tinn-R [http://www.sciviews.org/Tinn-R/] is
the best solution, as far as I know for it, unfortunately is only
available for Windows.
