[ESS] [R] is it safe to replace every "<-" by "=" in R code?

[Richard M. Heiberger]

An additional comment, you don't need to shade some regions in order to run
them.
In addition to C-c C-n (line) and C-c C-r (region), we also have C-c C-c
C-c C-c runs the command ess-eval-function-or-paragraph-and-step
This keystroke command will run a "paragraph" which is defined in an R
buffer
to be a set of lines with a blank line above them and a blank line below
them.
Thus, if you design your code consistently with blank lines for spacing, you
can
just put the cursor somewhere in the paragraph and submit it.

also, is there a way to shade a region of code 
( for  when you want to run a region ) without using the mouse ?  I like
avoiding the mouse if it's possible
?
