    SMcC> (defun ess-add-MM-keys ()
    SMcC>   "Define \"C-c f\" and force \\[ess-toggle-underscore]."
    SMcC>   (interactive)
    SMcC>   (require 'ess-mode)
    SMcC>    (define-key ess-mode-map "\C-cf" 'ess-insert-function-outline))

which was the wrong thing to add since the above code is already in ESS.
Instead you must *call* the ess-add-MM-keys function,
either by calling it once every time you restart Emacs & ESS by
       M-x ess-add-MM-keys 
or (as I said in an earlier message) you could simply add

      (add-hook 'ess-mode-hook	        'ess-add-MM-keys)
      (add-hook 'inferior-ess-mode-hook 'ess-add-MM-keys)

to your ~/.emacs which ensures the function is called automatically when
(inferior-)ess-mode is activated.
