[ESS] Fwd: elisp code: show function arguments

[Neil Shephard]

Nope, no cursor problems when editing R code.

One thing of note though is that you indicated that you use XEmacs,
whilst I use plain Emacs (albeit the a cvs version), and these at
times are quite different entities (see
http://www.xemacs.org/About/XEmacsVsGNUemacs.html for a dated
explanation).

One thing I have noticed is that the cursor jumps backwards to the
start of the preceding word when an opening bracket is typed when
editing Stata *.do files.

Commenting out the code in my ~/.emacs file corrects this error, so my
guess (I know little of LISP programming) is that the lisp code is
affecting something Emacs does when it see a bracket under ESS mode,
irrespective of whether its editing *.R
files.
