[question] Do you type parens manually after tab-completing a function name? #1277

Thank you for this great software!

I have a question about your code completion experience with ESS. After completing a function, do you have to start typing parens manually? Let me explain: I type "summa", press TAB, and complete to "summary". Since it is a function, after completing "summary", I have to type "(" to start parens to proceed with the arguments.

I was fine with it until recently. I had to do some work with Python and noticed that I don't have to start pares after completion in python-mode. Now I am wondering if there is something wrong with my ESS configuration or is it the intended way to autocomplete.

Mine don't either. I have not noticed before...
