1 ANNOUNCING ESS
****************
The ESS Developers proudly announce the release of ESS 17.11
Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS) provides an intelligent, consistent
interface between the user and the software. ESS interfaces with
R/S-PLUS, SAS, BUGS/JAGS, Stata and other statistical analysis packages
under the UNIX, GNU Linux, Microsoft Windows, macOS and other operating
systems. ESS is a package for the GNU Emacs and XEmacs text editors
whose features ESS uses to streamline the creation and use of
statistical software. ESS knows the syntax and grammar of statistical
analysis packages and provides consistent display and editing features
based on that knowledge. ESS assists in interactive and batch execution
of statements written in these statistical analysis languages.
ESS is freely available under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
Please read the file COPYING which comes with the distribution, for more
information about the license. For more detailed information, please
read the README files that come with ESS.

1.3 Requirements
================
ESS is most likely to work with current/recent versions of the following
statistical packages: R/S-PLUS, SAS, Stata, OpenBUGS and JAGS.
ESS supports current, and recent, stable versions of GNU Emacs
(currently, 24.3 or higher; alpha/beta/pre-release versions are NOT
SUPPORTED).
Due to XEmacs lacking some features that ESS requires, ESS support of
XEmacs ended with ESS 12.04-4.
To build the PDF documentation, you will need a version of TeX Live
or texinfo that includes texi2dvi (BEWARE: recent TeX Live, and some
texinfo RPMs, do NOT include texi2dvi).

1.4 Stability
=============
All recent released versions are meant to be release-quality versions.
While some new features are being introduced, we are cleaning up and
improving the interface. We know that there are many remaining
opportunities for documentation improvements, but all contributors are
volunteers and time is precious. Patches or suggested fixes with bug
reports are much appreciated!

File: announc.info, Node: Mailing List, Next: Reporting Bugs, Prev: Stability, Up: Announce
1.5 Mailing List
================
There is a mailing list for discussions and announcements relating to
ESS. Join the list by sending an e-mail with "subscribe ess-help" (or
"help") in the body to <ess-help-request@r-project.org>; contributions
to the list may be mailed to <ess-help@r-project.org>. Rest assured,
this is a fairly low-volume mailing list.
The purposes of the mailing list include
* helping users of ESS to get along with it.
* discussing aspects of using ESS on Emacs and XEmacs.
* suggestions for improvements.
* announcements of new releases of ESS.
* posting small patches to ESS.

1.6 Reporting Bugs
==================
Please send bug reports, suggestions etc. to <ESS-bugs@r-project.org>,
or post them on our github issue tracker
(https://github.com/emacs-ess/ESS/issues)
The easiest way to do this is within Emacs by typing
'M-x ess-submit-bug-report'
This also gives the maintainers valuable information about your
installation which may help us to identify or even fix the bug.
If Emacs reports an error, backtraces can help us debug the problem.
Type "M-x set-variable RET debug-on-error RET t RET". Then run the
command that causes the error and you should see a *Backtrace* buffer
containing debug information; send us that buffer.
Note that comments, suggestions, words of praise and large cash
donations are also more than welcome.

1.9 New Features
================
Changes and New Features in development version:
* ESS[R]: Interaction with inferior process in non-R files within
packages (for instance C or C++ files) has been improved. This is
a work in progress.
* ESS[R]: 'ess-r-package-use-dir' (which sets the working directory
to the root of the current package) now works with any mode (e.g.
in C or C++ files within '/src').
* This is the last release to support Emacs older than 25.1 Going
forward, only GNU Emacs 25.1 and newer will be supported. Soon
after this release, support for older Emacs versions will be
dropped from the git master branch. Note that MELPA uses the git
master branch to produce ESS snapshots, so if you are using Emacs <
25.1 from MELPA and are unable to upgrade, you should switch to
MELPA-stable.
* ESS[R]: Long + + prompts in the inferior no longer offset output.
New option 'strip' for 'inferior-ess-replace-long+' strips the
entire + + sequence.
* ESS[R]: Fontification of roxygen '@param' keywords now supports
comma-separated parameters.
* ESS[R]: Function-like keywords such as 'if ()' or 'stop()' are no
longer fontified as keyword if not followed by an opening
parenthesis. The same holds for search path modifiers like
'library()' or 'require()'. This feature is only available in
Emacs >= 25.
* ESS[R]: We have improved fontification of keywords so they better
reflect the semantics of the R language. 'ess-R-keywords' now only
contains words reserved by the R parser.
'ess-R-control-flow-keywords' contains words of base functions that
cause non-contiguous control flow, such as 'return()' and 'stop()'.
It includes the following variables that were previously not
fontified: 'on.exit()', 'tryCatch()', 'withRestarts()',
'invokeRestart()', 'recover()' and 'browser()'
Finally, 'ess-R-signal-keywords' contains functions part of the
condition system that only potentially impact control flow:
'message()', 'warning()' (moved from 'ess-R-keywords'),
'signalCondition()' and 'withCallingHandlers()'. These keywords
inherit from 'ess-modifiers-face' (the face used for 'library()'
etc).
* ESS modes now inherit from 'prog-mode'.
* ESS[R]: The package development minor mode now only activates
within editing buffers by default, i.e. ones that inherit from
'prog-mode' or 'text-mode'. If you want to restore the old
behaviour and activate the package mode in all buffers (that have a
'default-directory' that is part of a package path), set
'ess-r-package-auto-activate' to 't'.
* ESS now provides support for flymake in R buffers for Emacs 26 and
newer. Users need to install the 'lintr' package (available on
CRAN) to use it. Customizable options include 'ess-use-flymake',
'ess-r-flymake-linters', and 'ess-r-flymake-lintr-cache'.
* Improved customization for faces. ESS now provides custom faces
for (nearly) all faces used and places face customization options
into their own group. Users can customize these options using 'M-x
customize-group RET ess-faces'.
* ESS[R]: Gained support for xref in Emacs 25+. *Note (emacs)Xref::
* ESS[R]: Changing the working directory is now always reflected in
the process buffer.
* ESS[R]: The startup screen has been cleaned up and displays the
startup directory with an explicit 'setwd()'.
* ESS now displays the language dialect in the mode-line So, for
example, R buffers will now show ESS[R] rather than ESS[S].
* The ESS manual has been updated and revised.
* ESS[R]: 'Makevars' files are now automatically opened with
'makefile-mode'.
* New varaible 'ess-write-to-dribble'. This allows users to disable
the dribble ('*ESS*') buffer if they wish.
* ESS now respects Emacs conventions for keybindings. This means
that The 'C-c [letter]' bindings have been removed. This affects
'C-c h', which was bound to 'ess-eval-line-and-step-invisibly' in
'sas-mode-local-map'; 'C-c f', which was bound to
'ess-insert-function-outline' in 'ess-add-MM-keys'; and 'C-c h',
which was bound to 'ess-handy-commands' in 'Rd-mode-map',
'ess-noweb-minor-mode-map', and 'ess-help-mode-map'
* prettify-symbols-mode no longer breaks indentation This is
accomplished by having the pretty symbols occupy the same number of
characters as their non-pretty cousins. You may customize the new
variable 'ess-r-prettify-symbols' to control this behavior.
* Variable 'ess-s-versions-list' is obsolete and ignored. Use
'ess-s-versions' instead. You may pass arguments by starting the
inferior process with the universal argument.
* The 'ess-r-args.el' library has obsoleted and will be removed in a
future release. Use 'eldoc-mode' instead, which is on by default.
* All of the '*-program-name' variables have been renamed to
'*-program'. Users who previously customized e.g.
'inferior-ess-R-program-name' will need to update their
customization to 'inferior-ess-R-program'. These variables are
treated as risky variables.
* 'ess-smart-S-assign' changed name to 'ess-insert-S-assign'. By
default, it provides similar functionality. Since many users
dislike this functionality, it is easier to disable; set
'ess-smart-S-assign-key' to nil. The following functions have been
made obsolete and will be removed in the next release of ESS:
ess-smart-S-assign, ess-toggle-S-assign, ess-toggle-S-assign-key,
ess-disable-smart-S-assign.
* The option ess-S-assign has been removed. Customize new option
'ess-assign-list' instead.
* 'C-c C-=' is now bound to 'ess-cycle-assignment' by default See the
docstring for details. New user customization option
'ess-assign-list' controls what assignment operators are cycled
through.
* The ESS initialization process has been further streamlined. If
you update the autoloads (which installation from 'package-install'
does), you should not need to '(require 'ess-site)' at all, as
autoloads should automatically load ESS when it is needed (e.g.
the first time an R buffer is opened). In order to defer loading
your ESS config, you may want to do something like
'(with-require-after-load "ess" <ess-config-here>)' in your Emacs
init file. Users of the popular 'use-package' Emacs package can
now do '(use-package ess :defer t)' to take advantage of this
behavior.
Changes and New Features in 17.11:
* The ESS initialisation process has been streamlined. You can now
load the R and Stata modes independently from the rest of ESS. Just
put '(require 'ess-r-mode)' or '(require 'ess-stata-mode)' in your
init file. This is for experienced Emacs users as this requires
setting up autoloads for '.R' files manually. We will keep
maintaining 'ess-site' for easy loading of all ESS features.
* Reloading and quitting the process is now more robust. If no
process is attached, ESS now switches automatically to one
(prompting you for selection if there are several running).
Reloading and quitting will now work during a debug session or when
R is prompting for input (for instance after a crash). Finally,
the window configuration is saved and restored after reloading to
prevent the buffer of the new process from capturing the cursor.
* ESS[R]: New command 'ess-r-package-use-dir'. It sets the working
directory of the current process to the current package directory.
* ESS[R] Lookup for references in inferior buffers has been improved.
New variable 'ess-r-package-source-roots' contains package
sub-directories which are searched recursively during the file
lookup point. Directories in 'ess-tracebug-search-path' are now
also searched recursively.
* ESS[R] Namespaced evaluation is now automatically enabled only in
the 'R/' directory. This way ESS will not attempt to update
function definitions from a package if you are working from e.g. a
test file.
Changes and New Features in 16.10:
* ESS[R]: Syntax highlighting is now more consistent. Backquoted
names are not fontified as strings (since they really are
identifiers). Furthermore they are now correctly recognised when
they are function definitions or function calls.
* ESS[R]: Backquoted names and '%op%' operators are recognised as
sexp. This is useful for code navigation, e.g. with 'C-M-f' and
'C-M-b'.
* ESS[R]: Integration of outline mode with roxygen examples fields.
You can use outline mode's code folding commands to fold the
examples field. This is especially nice to use with well
documented packages with long examples set. Set
'ess-roxy-fold-examples' to non-nil to automatically fold the
examples field when you open a buffer.
* ESS[R]: New experimental feature: syntax highlighting in roxygen
examples fields. This is turned off by default. Set
'ess-roxy-fontify-examples' to non-nil to try it out.
* ESS[R]: New package development command 'ess-r-devtools-ask' bound
to 'C-c C-w C-a'. It asks with completion for any devtools command
that takes 'pkg' as argument.
* ESS[R]: New command 'C-c C-e C-r' to reload the inferior process.
Currently only implemented for R. The R method runs
'inferior-ess-r-reload-hook' on reloading.
* ESS[R]: 'ess-r-package-mode' is now activated in non-file buffers
as well.
Bug fixes in 16.10:
* ESS[R]: Fix broken (un)flagging for debugging inside packages
* ESS[R]: Fixes (and improvements) in Package development
* ESS[R]: Completion no longer produces '...=' inside 'list( )'.
* ESS[R]: Better debugging and tracing in packages.
* ESS[R]: Better detection of symbols at point.
* ESS[R]: No more spurious warnings on deletion of temporary files.
* ESS[julia]: help and completion work (better)
* ESS[julia]: available via 'ess-remote'
Changes and New Features in 16.04:
* ESS[R]: 'developer' functionality has been refactored. The new
user interface consists of a single command
'ess-r-set-evaluation-env' bound by default to 'C-c C-t C-s'. Once
an evaluation environment has been set with, all subsequent ESS
evaluation will source the code into that environment. By default,
for file within R packages the evaluation environment is set to the
package environment. Set 'ess-r-package-auto-set-evaluation-env'
to 'nil' to disable this.
* ESS[R]: New 'ess-r-package-mode' This development mode provides
features to make package development easier. Currently, most of
the commands are based on the 'devtools' packages and are
accessible with 'C-c C-w' prefix. See the documentation of
'ess-r-package-mode' function for all available commands. With
'C-u' prefix each command asks for extra arguments to the
underlying devtools function. This mode is automatically enabled
in all files within R packages and is indicated with '[pkg:NAME]'
in the mode-line.
* ESS[R]: Help lookup has been improved. It is now possible to get
help for namespaced objects such as pkg::foobar. Furthermore, ESS
recognizes more reliably when you change 'options('html_type')'.
* ESS[R]: New specialized breakpoints for debugging magrittr pipes
* ESS: ESS now implements a simple message passing interface to
communicate between ESS and inferior process.
Bug fixes in 16.04:
* ESS[R]: Roxygen blocks with backtics are now correctly filled
* ESS[R]: Don't skip breakpoints in magrittr's 'debug_pipe'
* ESS[R]: Error highlighting now understands 'testthat' type errors
* ESS[Julia]: Added getwd and setwd generic commands
