Thank you.
I'm very sorry because I was in a hurry when I post this thread.
I'll post again my code here:
[CODE]
import re
f=open("show_btchina.user.js","r").read()
f=unicode(f,"utf8")
r=re.compile(ur"//[^\r\n]+$", re.UNICODE|re.VERBOSE)
f_new=r.sub(ur"",f)
open("modified.js","w").write(f_new.encode("utf8"))
[/CODE]
And, the problem is, it seems that only the last comment is removed.
How can I remove all of the comments, please?
