Retain comments inside withAutoprint
Using withAutoprint allows conditional code to still be printed (as in R package examples). However, in doing so, comments are omitted.
withAutoprint({
x <- 1:5
# This is how we find the average
mean(x)
})
#> > x <- 1:5
#> > mean(x)
#> [1] 3

Is there a way to retain the comments in the printed output?

I think you would need to rewrite thesourcefunction. It uses readLines but then it sends to parse which strips comments. As far as I can tell there is no switch to throw that turns off that behavior. The usual advice given it to expand package files and read the code before sourcing.
