[ESS] Suggestion: ess-eval-chunk-and-step

[Vitalie Spinu]

This is a better way to do it:

(defun ess-eval-chunk-and-step (&optional vis)
  "Tangle the current chunk and send it to the inferior ESS process and
step to the next chunk"
  (interactive)
  (save-excursion
    (funcall 'ess-eval-chunk vis))
  (funcall 'ess-noweb-next-code-chunk 1))



I have just pushed a version of this into trunk. 

ess-eval-chunk-and-step is now bound to M-n C-c 
ess-eval-chunk          is now bound to M-n C-M-x 

Corresponding to C-c C-c and C-M-x ess map.

    Vitalie.
