Tinn-R probably loads faster, since it doesn't have the overhead of Java. As far as stability, I haven't used Tinn-R enough to compare. I use jEdit for my daily work, all day long, for the past 6 years, and I can't remember it ever crashing on me. -John Thaden > > On Thu, 25 Oct 2007 07:25:12, Michael Lawrence wrote: > > > I think a better idea would be to make a jEdit plugin > > that embeds an R console component (perhaps the one from > > JGR, but the last I checked it was not embeddable, > > unfortunately).
