I know I will probably get flamed for wanting multiline comments but I think
they are really handy when writing / debugging code.
I thought it would be a trivial exercise to add multiline comments but I
was wrong.
I tried this code
\ Refill if at end of input line
: ?refill ( --- f )
source nip >in @ >
if
true
else
refill
then
;
\ Multiline comment ended by *)
: (*
begin
parse-name
s" *)"
icompare
0=
while
?refill 0=
if
exit
the
repeat
; immediate
(* This is a comment *) <-- this single line comment works fine
(/*
this is a very long comment over multi lines <-- this multiline command
does not
*/)
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
