I'd say it's harder to remove the latter, due to having to search for the end of comment sequence, rather than simply looking for where the block comment stops. And you've extra problems if you allow nested comments, because then you'll have to count how deep you've gone. Of course, if you can completely trust your editor's syntax highlighter you might be OK, but wasn't part of the point of this argument about not *requiring* smart editors to be productive? -- \S -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- http://www.chaos.org.uk/~sion/ ___ | "Frankly I have no feelings towards penguins one way or the other" \X/ | -- Arthur C.
