Yeah but the the damage is already done then. What I was trying to explain was, if you paste a text like this into the editor: --- This is some text with debug information and is just used to explain my point. And there should be a bunch more lines below this one with preserved words in them. --- It becomes this, even before you have a chance to comment it: --- This IS some text WITH DEBUG information AND IS just used TO explain my point. AND there should be a bunch more lines below this one WITH preserved words IN them. --- Even if you arrange enough blank lines with a ' in front before you paste it over them. You get this: --- 'This is some text with debug information AND IS just used TO explain my point. AND there should be a bunch more lines below this one WITH preserved words IN them. ' ' --- That wouldn't be the case if you can put an /* and */ and can paste between those. Can't explain it any more clearer than this. Too bad it's a lot of work to implement.
