Dear
all,

I have
written some R source program with many thousands of lines. I didn’t insert
line breaks automatically or manually for the long lines. But now I would like
to edit the source code in Emacs/ESS to make it more formal as a package. One of
the major problems here is how to break the long lines automatically. Emacs auto-fill-mode
only works for the lines you are typing in currently, and fill commands like M-q
(fill-paragraph) or M-x fill-region (fill-region) mess up the R code lines as
they take a whole function/paragraph as a long line, and remove the original
line breaks. 

I find
simple solutions for indenting code regions in Emacs/ESS, but no good ones for
breaking code lines. However, I saw the nice multi-line codes in all
R/Bioconductor packages. Please let me know if you have any ideas on how people
usually break the existent long R code lines automatically. I will really
appreciate your kind help!

Heyi
