+ Emacs Speaks Statistics (ESS) provides an intelligent, consistent
+interface between the user and the software. ESS interfaces with
+S-PLUS, R, SAS, BUGS and other statistical analysis packages under the
+Unix, Microsoft Windows, and Apple Mac OS operating systems. ESS is a
+package for the GNU Emacs and XEmacs text editors whose features ESS
+uses to streamline the creation and use of statistical software. ESS
+knows the syntax and grammar of statistical analysis packages and
+provides consistent display and editing features based on that
+knowledge. ESS assists in interactive and batch execution of
+statements written in these statistical analysis languages.
