Possible Dependencies

`custom’, `easymenu’, `ess’, `ess-compat’, `ess-custom’, `font-lock’, `syntax’, `widget’.

Installation

To use without using a package manager:

• Put the library in a directory in the emacs load path, like ~/.emacs.d
• Add (require ‘ess-smart-underscore) in your ~/.emacs file

This is in emacswiki, so this package can also be installed using el-get.

After installing el-get, Type M-x el-get-install ess-smart-underscore.

Ess-Smart Underscore Package Information

Smart “_” key: insert ess-S-assign, unless:

1. in string/comment
2. after a $ (like d$one_two) (toggle with ess-S-underscore-after-$)
3. when the underscore is part of a variable definition previously defined. (toggle with `ess-S-underscore-after-defined’)
4. when the underscore is after a “=” or “<-” on the same line.
5. inside a parenthetical statement () or []. (toggle with ess-S-underscore-when-inside-paren)
6. At the beginning of a line.
7. In a variable that contains underscores already (for example foo_a) (toggle with ess-S-underscore-when-variable-contains-underscores)
8. The preceding character is not a tab/space (toggle with ess-S-underscore-when-last-character-is-a-space. Not enabled by default.)

An exception to #4 is in the following situation:

a <- b |

Pressing an underscore here would produce

a <- b <-

However when in the following situation

a <- b|

Pressing an underscore would produce

a <- b_

This behavior can be toggled by ess-S-space-underscore-is-assignment

If the underscore key is pressed a second time, the assignment operator is removed and replaced by the underscore. ess-S-assign, typically ” <- “, can be customized. In ESS modes other than R/S, an underscore is always inserted.

In addition the ess-smart-underscore attempts to work with noweb-mode
