I actually don't know. I find that it's rather useful since I usually use the commenting function to comment out blocks of code, and having these commented with "##" differentiates them from comments which I write manually. > How does one change IDLE to use just a single (#) hash mark for comments? Take a look at EditorWindow.comment_region_event in idlelib/EditorWindow.py. The "##" is hard-coded; just changing it to "#" should work (not tested). - Tal Einat _______________________________________________ IDLE-dev mailing list IDLE-dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/idle-dev
