[O] Using tramp to run R source code blocks on remote server

[Vikas Rawal]

I am trying to run R source code blocks on a remote server (defined in my 
~/.ssh/config as cesp).

I am facing several problems.

1.  The following sample block, when used with ":results value" does not give 
any results.

#+NAME: level1
#+begin_src R :results value :exports results :colnames yes :hline yes :session 
cesp :dir /cesp:/home/vikas/
c(1:5)
#+end_src

I get the following message:

tramp-flush-directory-property: Wrong type argument: arrayp, nil

I get the expected output if I use ":results output”, but I don’t want that.

2. Is there a way to be able to use screen/byobu with remote processing? I have 
tried various options of using shell, term, or ansi-term. Each of them gives 
some problem or the other. Does anyone have experience with using any of these?

Would appreciate help
