[BlindRUG] Emacs, R and Windows 10

[JooYoung Seo]

Hello Robin,

I also had to refresh the JAWS virtual buffer when using Emacs Speaks
Statistics on Windows 10.
I have tried many options including vim, Visual Studio, VS Code, NPP,
etc.; however, I still find using the native R Terminal in CMD windows
most accessible.
I use batch file to feed any R file extension through R CMD BATCH, and
open rendered text file (*.Rout) with NPP.

I do not want to put more effort to find alternatives; I am too exhausted.
Please keep us posted if you find anything tryable.

Best wishes,

JooYoung
