this may be slightly off-topic, but another way of adding documentation
is to the 'roxygen' markup.
http://roxygen.org/
Actually not - I did not specify that I want to use .Rd .
ESS has some support for editing roxygen comment chunks within ESS
buffers,
Yes - I looked into Roxygen some time ago, but in the context of org, I see it as not necessary to include the documentation in the source code block - when using
#+begin_src Rd
#+end_src
and
#+begin_src R
#+end_src
I can nicely separate these two on the code level - but in the org file, they are still literate programming.
Cheers,
