I completely agree with you, unfortunatelly my wife does not ;) Since I
only need emacs-lisp for customizing the editor I did not find it worth
of the time to learn lisp.

I would like to set the folding characters for R code and the
corresponding lisp code for sh-mode is

(fold-add-to-marks-list 'sh-mode "# {{{" "# }}}" " ")

This is very very similar to R (I would just use ## or ###). Anyway, I
need to know the mode name that is used for R. When I launch C-h m
(describe modes) I only see EES[S], but I can not put that into above
lisp code. So there are two modes i.e. inferior-ess-mode and ess-mode.
Can you please point to the differences or relevant documentation on
this. I would like to know (without trial and error method ;)) which
mode should I use for above customization?

But if there are two modes, I presume one can not use specific
customization for say R/S and SAS buffers. Is my reasoning the right one?
