In regards to WSL, that came out after I permanently switched

Cygwin. Also, the more recent WSL 2 (released in 2019) sounds

like it is more compatible than WSL 1 (released in 2016).

R is not being tested under WSL. When I tried last time (which is 
several years ago), there were some issues. Maybe they are already gone 
by now, I don't know, but it is not a supported platform.

Thanks for your thoughtful reply.  Alas, I am using a company-provided 
laptop.  I would much prefer to run Linux as I do on my personal 
system but that is not in the cards.  I have plenty of access to Linux 
servers and of course I can run things there but it’s a bit inconvenient.


I thought about using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux). I have some 
experience with early versions of that [which leads me to avoid it 😊].


It is my fate to cope with legacy junk on projects that were late when 
I joined. Ah well it’s a living.

Hi Robert:

There was a time when we supported ESS under Cygwin.

In other words, run elisp code assuming UNIX/Linux rather

than Windows even though Windows is the OS.  However,

that was a long time ago: at least 10 years since I last tried it.

Cygwin has largely fallen out of fashion since you can now so

easily install Ubuntu on typical hardware: something that

has markedly improved since 2013.  Therefore, I would not

expect Cygwin support to work out of the box since there

has been no recent testing.  Also, Windows is not very

popular with R users since there is no forking support

for the parallel package.  So switching to Linux is well

worth it.  I used to run Windows inside VirtualBox when

I needed to do PC stuff like Office and iTunes

(before switching to macOS and never looking back ;o)

Let me try raw text:

Tomas, my thanks for your prompt and useful response. I followed your 
instructions and the Windows (MinGW/MSYS2) R and ggplot2 of course 
work perfectly well launched from a Cygwin bash shell.  Alas, ESS 
inside Cygwin Emacs 29.1 doesn't quite work, launching an R process 
gives an error and although R is running with stdin/stdout directed to 
the Emacs buffer there is no tab completion.


[background for the benefit of ess-b...@r-project.org]

I recently received a new Windows 11 laptop from our IT department and 
I'm trying to recreate my R environment (Cygwin/Emacs/ESS/R/ggplot2). 
Originally I installed R 4.3.0 as packaged in Cygwin's setup.exe 
utility (in the Math section). I was unable to add ggplot2. Tomas 
kindly pointed me to the pre-built Windows binaries and as expected 
installing it and ggplot2 went smoothly.

Re: [ESS] [External] [R-win] Difficulty installing R packages under Windows 11 / Cygwin

[Martin Maechler via ESS-help]

As R core and ESS core  I still have never tried to install ESS under Windows.
Just last week installed not only R for Windows (binary from CRAN) +
Rtools43 (by Tomas, from CRAN) and was able to install my Rmpfr
package (C code + external lib) *from source* -- again
thanks to Tomas Kalibera's  excellent  Rtools.
However, for Emacs & ESS,  I have always used the Windows port of
Emacs+ESS+Auctex+..  by Vincent Goulet (Canada)
which now resides here  https://emacs-modified.gitlab.io/
For me it's absolutely crucial and nicely working, also allowing
M-x R-[Tab]   get a list of my dozen different R versions all
installed in our (Terminal Server) Windows version.

Re: [ESS] [External] [R-win] Difficulty installing R packages under Windows 11 / Cygwin

[Richard M. Heiberger via ESS-help]

my initial reaction is that you are trying to hard.  I haven't paid serious 
attention to Windows since
I switched to Mac about 10 years ago.

What I recall is that all the unix utilities (sh, awk, grep, etc) that you need 
are included in the
Rtools collection.  Indeed they are exactly the cygwin utilities.  I know that 
I stopped bothering
with cygwin itself once I meade that realization.  Then, since all the unix 
functions are distributed by
R, you know that they are fully compatible.  I used the CRAN distibuted Windows 
binary for R.
