Assignment arrow

To use R on my Mac, I had been running ESS in emacs under X11. I found R.app, and much prefer it -- especially the quartz graphics -- but there's one thing I miss about ESS: to get an assignment arrow "<-" you just type shift underscore. In R.app, you have to type the less than sign (shift-comma) followed by the dash. Coming over from ESS, the extra keystroke bothers me. Is there an easier way to type an assignment arrow in R.app? Some way to make a keyboard macro perhaps? I've looked through the FAQ and can't find anything. I appreciate any assistance.
You could switch to using "=" instead of "<-", but as a non-ESS user, I think just typing "<-" ends up being pretty quick after you get used to it. Duncan Murdoch
