I will just remove the "//" and everything that follows to the end of the 
line (remove all comments and keep the programming)

by copy paste into my developer console - you mean just add a new tiddler 
called "PMario step 1"  with the body containing your code (stripped of 
comments) and save it - and it is going to reveal me a list of tiddlers to 
check??? 

Developer console must be something else...
