I want font-lock-mode to be disabled whenever I open an R file, but I can't
get it to work. I have the following in my .emacs file:

  (global-font-lock-mode nil)

This seems to work fine for other modes I use (perl, HTML, C++) but not ESS.
I also tried:

  (add-hook 'ess-mode-hook (lambda () (font-lock-mode 0)))

but that didn't work either. Any suggestions?

I'm seeing this on two systems:
  - ESS 5.3.0 and Emacs 22.1 on Linux
  - ESS 5.3.6 and Emacs 21.3.1 on Windows XP

Thanks.
Joey
