[R] RWinEdt install problem

[Chuck Cleland]

   I am using WinEdt 5.4 (Build: 20040513 (v. 5.4), on XP service pack 
2), and the following approach works for me:

1) Install RWinEdt_1.6-2.zip using RGui menus.

2) Include the following line in the Rprofile file.

library(RWinEdt)

   This will launch WinEdt with R customizations whenever RGui is launched.

hope this helps,
