[Geany-Users] geany does not send commands to terminal (in fresh new installation), geany 1.23, GTK 2.24, Ubuntu 12.04 64bit

[Lex Trotman]

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
Lex
