I just upgraded to modified Emacs

http://vgoulet.act.ulaval.ca/en/emacs/mac/

When I used to work in R files, #' was recognized by ess-mode such that hitting [Enter] at the end of a line that began with #' would start the next line with #'. After the upgrade, it does not seem to recognize #' as a special form.

Any ideas what variable I need to set?

    This should work out of the box, and it does for me with the same versions of Emacs and ESS as are in the distribution you use. Perhaps file a bug with the folks that maintain the package you've used? The best help for debugging these custom distributions is the distributor - I can't reproduce your problem with standard Emacs.

  1. I commented out (require 'ess-site) in /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/Resources/site-lisp/site-start.el
  2. Installed the package from ELPA.
  3. In my .emacs, I included the statements:

    (require 'package)
    (require 'ess-site)
