[R] R Commenting Style

[Kevin E. Thorpe]

I don't know if this is what you're referring to, but in ESS the number 
of octothorpes (#) affects the indentation in the emacs buffer. If I 
remember right, ### puts it at the beginning of the line, ## the current 
indentation level (eg. in a function) and # further right.
