Please run /usr/bin/R at the command line, *not* just R.

If that works then please go to menu->edit->preferences->terminal and in the Shell: box replace whatever is there with /bin/bash and then stop and start Geany.  Does the terminal have a normal shell running in it?

If that works and /usr/bin/R worked at the command line go to menu->edit->preferences->terminal and in the Shell: box replace whatever is there with /usr/bin/R and then stop and start Geany. 

Does it work now?

Cheers

Hello Lex,

R I can run anywhere at the command line and it works fine (see image below when running from ~ directory). I tried again to run geany reportEurope1.r to upload R code and there again I do not have prompt at terminal as before. What do I have to do to stop and re-run Geany? Also, where do I have to type /bin/bash, inside Geany? (inside geany I cannot do because I have no access to terminal unless I type the command geany -v -i -c etc which you suggested before...

Ok, so your Geany works with default values, that means that Geany and the VTE library are working.  But it doesn't work if you type /bin/bash as the shell preference?  Did you stop and re-run Geany after you typed /bin/bash?

When you ran R at the command line, did you type /usr/bin/R or just R?  If the latter try the full /usr/bin/R to ensure the path is right.

Cheers
