Linux etc.

I will have to use MS Windows for my new job, at least some of the time. I’ll put related posts in a new “MS Windows” category.

If you use R, you most likely want ESS (Emacs Speaks Statistics) for your GNU Emacs. If you use LaTeX, you will also want AucTeX.

I highly recommend you use Vincent Goulet’s modified Emacs version. As an additional benefit, it comes as a convenient self-installing .exe file.

Thanks Vincent!

p.s. To get LaTeX on Windows, you will want to get MiKTeX. MiKTeX is very nice and can auto-install missing packages on the fly when you want to use them in a document.
