Seth,
Thanks for your input and help. I followed Sacha's advice by looking
at the planner documentation and reading the headers for each of the
additional lisp files. I have a good idea what other code I wish to
load in my config file. I still do not grasp the config loader for
the .emacs file due solely to my absolute ignorance of lisp. No
worries though. I will search the web and learn a bit more about
emacs lisp. Thanks again.
Oh, and I agree with your sentiments. There is a large and growing
group of us that use R/ESS/LaTeX/Sweave but most of us do so quietly
without much fanfare. A bit of a shame if you ask me. Others should
learn the ease of use of this combination.
Cheerio...
