Commenting out a line of a multiline script block
Posted: Thu Jul 14, 2016 1:09 pm
If someone of you didn't realize this until now as I did:
Comments after the line continuation char "\" in multiline strings/commands are allowed.
(I learned that in another thread here.)
So I gradually have found by that a method to comment out a line of a multiline block:
Just prepend the line with "\--" (or "\#" or "\//"):
It's so obvious, I gave up too early when the usual prepending of "--" didn't work.

Code: Select all
function hallo
return "" & \
\-- "I am a commented line" &cr& \
"See you later alligator!"
end hallo
function decisionRule p,q,r
return ((p is not r) and (q is not r)) \
\-- OR ((p is q) and (q is r)) \
OR ((p is r) and (q is not p))
end decisionRule
