actually C-c C-e C-s ... but yes, you are right, Pooya.

I have now fixed the documentation there, 
thank you very much!

Hmm.. strange you can't find it.  It is still the "data base" of
all the ESS (indentation/alignment..) styles.

If you have loaded ESS,
   C-h v  ess-style-alist

not only shows you its content, but even contains quite a bit
more documentation about the meaning of the different styles'
parts (i.e. variables).

you're welcome ...
