Hi - I want to embed comments in the history file using "#". However, if I have "Cleanup history entries" checked in the GUI preferences, the "#" is stripped from the entry so that, for example, if I type "# this is a comment" and then up-arrow, " this is a comment" is added to the console without the hash. On the other hand, if I uncheck "Cleanup history entries," then lines retrieved from the history seem to have an return at the end (which generates extra blank lines when these entries are executed). I'm thinking that this behaviour might be a bug since it did not occur with the last version I was using (R.14.0, R.app GUI 1.42 (5933)). I observed this with a fresh install of R 2.15.0, R.app GUI 1.51 (6148), but maybe there's something funny about my configuration that's tickling the latest version?
