Is anyone else having problems using ess-mode? It wasn't coming up at all after a simple apt-get install ess, so I edited /etc/emacs/50ess.el to contain:
(require 'ess-site) Now it still doesn't come up automatically, but I can do M-x ess-mode. But then I just get: Wrong type argument: syntax-table-p, nil I don't know (nearly) enough about emacs to be able to diagnose this, but I do know that on my home machine simply opening a file with the appropriate extension (R, S, sps, do, etc.) starts ess appropriately. This works for other types (CPerl, for example), but not ess. Any advice?
