[ESS] from emacs region to R

[A.J. Rossini]

Then I'm guessing you aren't in an R function.  After all, it's send
FUNCTION  (i.e. having cursor in the middle of something like:

MyFunctionName <- function(x) {

   code
    cursor here
   mode code
}

)
and if you aren't in a function, then the whole buffer looks like a
function (and gosh, this isn't MATLAB :-).  There are corresponding
other keystrokes,  C-h b  (list of bindings) should help find them.
