description of mode change inside buffer:

 ,------------------------------------------------------------------------
 | "The Emacs text editor offers a perfect authoring environment for
 | Sweave, especially for people who already use Emacs for writing LATEX
 | documents and interacting with R. ESS allows to connect an Sweave file
 | to a running R process while writing the document. Code chunks can be
 | sent to R and evaluated using simple keyboard shortcuts or popup menus.
 | Syntax highlighting, automatic indentation and key- board shortcuts
 | depend on the location of the pointer: in documentation chunks Emacs
 | behaves as if editing a standard LATEX file, when the pointer moves to
 | a code chunk the mode switches automatically to S programming."
