How can I comment out whole chunks of code?
just a thought: you might want to have a look at the brew package (R- forge). Instead of source()ing the document in the R console, you'd use brew(). By default, any text is considered a comment, only lines contained between <% %> will be run as R code. baptiste

Hello, I know this has been discussed, but I haven't found an answer in the archives. Basically, I'd like to be able to comment out chunks of code (which may or may not be syntactically correct) without having to put the # symbol in front of each line (and, if possible, without having to adopt a new text editor). My current R setup (XP) is very simple. I always have three windows open: the R console, my working directory, and a Notepad window containing my program. Adopting Tinn-R would probably solve this problem, but for simplicity I'd rather not move beyond Notepad (if possible). Thanks for any help you can provide, Mark
