Re: st: text editors

I agree with the ESS opinion. I have been very excited so far with what
I have seen of it. My problem stems from the fact that when I try M-x 
Stata RET,
Stata does not start to execute as an inferior process. I am using 
Stata 8, for
OS X, and I think the problem is I am not able to start it as a console 
version.

I was hoping that there was a Stata startup option to disable the GUI 
and start
with just the command line. I think it would then work with ESS. I know 
that if
I just type Stata at the UNIX prompt on a OS X terminal, the gui pops 
up and I
imagine this is why ESS and Emacs is having trouble with it. Does 
anyone know
how I can get Stata 8 on OS X to startup without the gui?
