title: Is it possible to have a multi-line comments in R?
body: <p>I found this <a href="http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/How-to-comment-in-R-tt882882.html#none" rel="noreferrer">old thread</a> (from over a year ago), which explains how come R doesn't support a multi-line comments (like /*  comment */ of PHP, for example).</p>
  
  <p>I am wondering if this has been resolved in the past year, or if there are other alternatives?  (For example, in notepad++ with npptor, you can mark a bunch of lines and press ctrl+q to mark them all as comments, are there similar solutions for other IDE's ?)</p>
