I am trying add a command to the R bundle that will send the current line to the R GUI, in the same way the ESS for Emacs "Eval line & step" command works.
Before I start one question. Which R bundle do you are using? The 'normal' one or the Review bundles R, R Console (R.app), R Console (Rdaemon)?
I must say I have only used R for three weeks now as part of a course at my university, so I have not found my preferred workflow yet. I am currently using the 'normal' R bundle, I just discovered the Console mode and your Rdaemon bundle. But I have not been able to find the above mentioned feature in non of them...
And I forgot my second question ;) Why do you want to do it?
My current workflow is to write my script in a .R file and then execute the script or parts of it. I have used MATLAB a lot and this is the way I work in MATLAB. With the 'normal' R bundle you can execute the entire script inside TextMate, send the entire script to the R GUI, or send a selection to the R GUI, but you cannot send the current line to R. That is if you only want to execute one line you have to select the line, which requires more click/keyboard actions. This is why I want to make a shortcut that send the current line to R and moves the cursor down to enable me to run the next line quickly.
It would also be nice to be able to do cells like in MATLAB: splitting the script into sections by two comment characters, and then run the cells independently.
But maybe it is my workflow that is the problem, how do you work with R in TextMate?
