Do you mean "indent(ation)" (2nd letter = 'n') ?
If yes,
you might consider using
  \describe{ ........ } or \itemize{ .... }

You can find many examples in R's sources, or directly looking inside
the (large) file

    system.file("man/base.Rd")

look for '\name{DateTimeClasses}' and its \details{..} section
