My experience is that, under Windows, you cannot run Rcmdr with either JGR or
(X)Emacs/ESS. From John Fox's own 'An Introduction to ESS + XEmacs for Windows
Users of R': "The Rcmdr package does not run reliably under XEmacs/ESS for
Windows." I get the same instability (Rcmdr not responding and then R crashing)
with Rcmdr and JGR.
Under Linux, I have had Emacs/ESS and Rcmdr running together. I don't know
about JGR, as I don't presently have it installed on a Linux box.
If you want to use Rcmdr under Windows, the combination of R-Gui, Tinn-R and
Rcmdr works well.
