I think we could live with the above advertized behavior.
Unfortunately, in the following case 'xx1' even a comment BEFORE the
last
statement is lost
((because the last statement is so trivial ???,
it is NOT lost in the 'xx1a' example (and in others I tried)) :
This is in plain 0.50-a1 :
> xx1 <- function(x) {
+ ##--- a Start-comment ... (lost in 0.50-a1)
+ x
+ }> xx1
function (x)
{
x
}
> xx1a <- function(x) {
+ ##--- a Start-comment ... (ok in 0.50-a1)
+ x+1
+ }> xx1a
function (x)
{
##--- a Start-comment ... (ok in 0.50-a1)
x + 1
}
