We recently purchased the subject product and I like it a lot for the

of your choice when you type RBEDIT at the R>.  Is that true?  If it
is, how do you make it happen? I've searched help and Rdocs but can't
seem to find anything.

We are using R:base 7.6. What does EDITOR ON in the RBENGINE76.CFG
file do?  Couldn't find anything on that either.


Phillip,

Here's how to integrate external R:BASE Editor 7.6 in R:BASE 7.6 or
Turbo V-8 for Windows:

Assuming a typical installation of R:BASE Editor 7.6 (C:\RBTI\RBEdit),
all you have to do is to simply use the following command at the R>
prompt:

SET EDITOR 'C:\RBTI\RBEdit\RBEdit.exe'

This will set the default editor to your choice of R:BASE Editor 7.6.

SHOW EDITOR or (CVAL('EDITOR')) will reveal the setting for default
editor.

You may also use the following option in your specific version of
RBENGINE76.CFG or RBENGINE8.CFG:

-- Line #86
EDITOR C:\RBTI\RBEdit\RBEdit.exe

That's all there is to it!

Have a great weekend.

Very Best R:egards,

Razzak.
