Here's a way:
on mouseUp
put removeBlockComments(the script of me)
end mouseUp
/* this is a comment
as is this */function removeBlockComments pText
put pText into tText
put offset("/*",tText) into tOffset
if tOffset > 0 then
delete char tOffset to tOffset + offset("*/",tText,tOffset) + 1 of tText
put removeBlockComments(tText) into tText
end if
return tText
end removeBlockComments
