Comment #5 on issue 3523 by renggli: Nested comments
http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3523
Fist of all, C/C++/Java/C#/JavaScript comments go like this:
/* some comment */
In any case, introducing that into Smalltalk doesn't work because both #/*
and #/* are valid binary selectors and it would be highly ambiguous to
parse something like this:
12 /* some comment */ a
A combination with the double-quotes $" could work and would avoid the
ambiguity:
"* some comment "* some nesting *" *"
Otherwise, I am afraid there is no other character to introduce nested
comments.
