As Brian said, they "not allowed at all" for normal (tested) part of the
examples.
If you want to *show* them in the example section of your help
{*and* allow the ESS user to send them linewise (by "l") or regionwise}
you must wrap these parts into
\dontrun{

   ... your interactive things ...

}

Note that this will be improved, once we move to a more general
documentation format (based on xml).
