bug#17529: 24.3; Error in hippie-expand

[Torbjørn Lindahl]

Also adviced to include the comint-prompt-regexp:

comint-prompt-regexp is a variable defined in `comint.el'.
Its value is "^[]a-zA-Z0-9.[]*\\([>+.] \\)*[+>] "
Local in buffer *R*; global value is "^"

Oh and here is backtrace, the auto-generated email was so long I just thought it would be in there:

Hi, I tried but don't know how to.

I did this:

1. open a text file and apply major mode: "ESS[S] modedefined in 'ess.mode.el' , according to C-h m

2. Start R from that process (need to have R installed, a statistics program)

3. In the inferior R process, try running hippie-expand , that's how I got the error.

I have been asking in #emacs @freenonde on how to load ess-mode from -Q, ill tell you when i know

Thanks for the report, but please give us some (any!) details.
Can you give a recipe starting from emacs -Q that shows how to
reproduce the problem?

Can you do:
M-x toggle-debug-no-error
repeat the problem, and send the backtrace?

Buried in the automated part of your report, I see the problem was:

   he-init-string: Wrong type argument: integer-or-marker-p, nil
