Martin Panter added the comment: Thanks Serhiy. My pass over the files missed most cases where there was a line break involved, and certain punctuation and markup, which you picked up on. I skipped the /Lib/msilib/schema.py file in my patch because it was part of the data rather than a comment

Martin Panter added the comment: Thanks everyone for the comments. Serhiy’s points: I did this by using “grep” and then manually editing all of the appropriate lines. So they were not generated by a script, but because it is a fairly mindless process I could have made human mistakes. In multi
