Dear colleges,
        I asked two days ago how I could make the comments invisible when I
run a script. None of the solutions I got worked with my current settings
(S-Plus 6.0, Windows NT4) (see below for the answers I got). A different
character should be available to make visible and invisible comments. A
double ## would be intuitive and easy to program (I guess).

        I want to publicly thank those who took time to answer my question.

        Regards

      Yves Claveau


        ANSWERS TO MY QUESTION

Look under the help for options().  I believe you can set options(echo=F) to
get the result you want.  Check the help first before issuing that command -
I'm not in S-PLUS right now and am not totally sure that echo is an option.

For your information, I was interested in an answer to the same question a
few months ago.  One suggestion that does not work is Options(echo = F).

I believe the only way to eliminate the problem is to write your own print
program.
