Tinn-R is free, simple but efficient replacement for the basic code editor provided by Rgui.

Tinn stands for the recursive acronym 'Tinn is not Notepad'. It is initially written as a small ASCII file editor primarily intended as a better replacement for the default Notepad.exe program distributed with Windows. With versions, it grew to a fairly complete, yet simple and compact code editor.
Tinn is written in Delphi 5 and it runs only under Windows (9X/Me/2000/XP). It is free and distributed under GPL 2.
The specific version (Tinn-R) contains enhancements to allow syntax highlighting of S language (in *.R, *.r, *.Q or *.q files), that is, the language used by the open source statistical software R (http://www.r-project.org).
It also pops up additional menu and toolbar when it detects Rgui running on the same computer. These addons interact with the R console and allow to submit code in part or in whole and to control R directly.
Tinn-R is a small, free and simple, yet efficient, replacement for the basic code editor provided by Rgui. Latest Tinn-R version and source is available on SourceForge. Note that, starting from version 1.18.x.x, Tinn-R is not compatible anymore with Rgui in MDI mode (only SDI), nor with S-PLUS! Latest compatible version is 1.17.2.4, which is still distributed here.
Download and install Tinn-R for Windows
Please, visit SourceForge to download the latest version of Tinn-R.
Starting from Tinn-R 1.16.1.4 stable, the installer is required. Tinn-R now comes with two databases (R tips and R cards) that must be installed at the same time as Tinn-R itself. The latest stable version that can be installed manually (version, 1.15.1.7) is still downloadable from here (to run it on any computer from an USB key, for instance, just unzip the file on the key and run Tinn-R.exe from there).
