I don't know if this is emacs issue or an emacs plus ESS issue. I am using Vincent Goulet's "Emacs Modified for macOS is a distribution of GNU Emacs 27.1 (released August 10, 2020) bundled with a few select packages for R developers and LaTeX users." Process: Emacs-x86_64-10_14

Calum, Thanks for your thoughts. As mentioned, I fixed the problem. I actually was using require() and also tried library() but the problem was elsewhere as my R installation and startup seemed to no longer have variables set properly to find packages remotely or locally. And yes, I

I can't help but feel that a discussion on the merit of BMI is a digression, from the OP's question. In addition, to being of no relevance to "R Programming". In relation to Richard's technical comments: As per my previous post, it is possible to get *relative" measures. (Assuming the images are
