That would make it impossible to comment out a block of text without editing it first, since many other kinds of line might end with backslashes. And then you'd have to remember where the backslashes used to be when undoing the commenting-out. Commenting-out could well introduce pseudo-pseudo-comments. I doubt we can do anything about that. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jack Campin: 11 Third Street, Newtongrange, Midlothian EH22 4PU; 0131 6604760 <http://www.purr.demon.co.uk/jack> * food intolerance data & recipes, Mac logic fonts, Scots traditional music files, and my CD-ROM "Embro, Embro". ------> off-list mail to "j-c" rather than "abc" at this site, please <------ To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
