When I input a function, the R help document pops up automatically. It's very annoying. How to turn it off?

it doesn't do this by default. There is probably something in your configuration causing this problem. You could start by bisecting it to narrow down the likely problem: https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/28429/how-do-i-troubleshoot-emacs-problems – Tyler Mar 05 '21 at 16:42

I use doom-emacs. It might be not easy to do that. Is this functionality provided by ESS? – Fangquan Shi Mar 05 '21 at 16:53

It's probably associated with ESS, but what you describe sounds very irritating - definitely not standard behaviour with ESS, which I also use extensively. I'm not familiar with Doom Emacs unfortunately – Tyler Mar 05 '21 at 17:03

This is an interaction of company-mode
with ESS. You can fix this issue like this:
(setq ess-use-company 'script-only)
This disables use of company-mode
in the R terminal, but makes it available in R scripts. To disable it entirely in ESS, just use
(setq ess-use-company nil)
More useful information about company-mode
with ESS can be found here:
