How to hiding code for a package
I always thought that ability to see and study the code of every package, was a great thing about R and other "open source" environments. So I hope there are no good ways of hiding the code of packages.

I have a few functions in this package written in R that I wish to hide such that after installation, someone can use say the function
foo(parameters = "") but cannot do >foo.
Typing foo should not show the source code or at least not all of it. Is there a way to do this ? I have searched the mailing list and used google, and have found something like "[R] Hiding internal package functions for the doc. pkg-internal.Rd" but this seems different since it seems that the keyword internal just hides the function from showing in the index and hides documentation, not the function itself. Can someone help?
