Hello Dan:
Thank you. I knew it was something silly like that ..

C-c ' is the right key and not C-c ` .. (I didn't notice the difference :-(
)

Everything works perfectly normal now.

Actually, I have started using Eric's fork of emacs-starter-kit and it has
done wonders to my productivity with Emacs. The kit activates R by default
(if I understood the documentation correctly).

Thanks,
S.

PS: If you are the same Dan as on worg, thank you for drift.org ... it has
helped me a lot in writing my paper.
