Hmm, the behavior you see, Gregor, is quite strange.
"Of course", your example also runs nicely and smoothly for me
{Linux Redhat & Debian; Emacs 21.4 and 21.3}.
I think we have heard of problems like yours for Xemacs users,
but not GNU emacs..
Could it be that your *.R buffer (in which you select the region
via C-c C-r) is in a "strange" encoding where the spaces in
tmp <- data.frame(m1 = y[1:40],
m2 = y[41:80],
m3 = y[81:120],
m4 = y[121:160],
s1 = s[1:40],
s2 = s[41:80],
s3 = s[81:120],
s4 = s[121:160])
are encoded as peculiar UTF-8 codes or ..?
Call the file ex.R and try in a shell
tr -d '\-.,<=:)(][[:alnum:]' < ~/R/qq.R | od -a
you should only get 'sp' (ASCII space) and 'nl' (newline)
