[OS X Emacs] ESS through Aquamacs

[Gregory Ryslik]

Hi,

So after running your command, I get an ESS option in the menu but when I type actual SAS code I do not get any of the convenient highlighting. I am using Aquamacs 2.0 Preview5. My messages buffer is attached below. Maybe I don't know enough about EMACS but when i start the buffer in "R" mode I get my regular syntax highlighting.

Thank you again for ally our help!
