Look at the help page, the example does exactly this by putting a two element vector of strings as comment.
Hope it helps

Hello all,

I recently discovered the "comment" command.
I see it can only hold a vector of characters.

Is there a way (or an alternative), to make it possible to have it keep a
list?
(for example, to keep different pieces of information like date of creation,
information of each variable and so on)

The closest solution I can think of is using 'names' on the vector, like
this:
x<- 1
comment(x)<- letters
names(comment(x))<- LETTERS
x
comment(x)


Any other suggestions?
(or general best practices for the "comment" command ?)

Thanks,
Tal
