You could set the source attribute like this: R> f <- function(x) x+1
R> # displays the word hidden instead of showing the source R> attr(f, "source") <- "hidden" R> f hidden R> f(10) # still works as a function properly [1] 11 Of course, someone knowledgable could change the source attribute back but this would prevent casual inspection.
