Currently, when making a list with continuation lines, it is not
possible to add a comment somewhere:
let array = [
\ item,
\ item,
\ item,
\]
Adding a comment after the comma causes all the rest to be included in
the comment:
let array = [
\ item,
\ item, " comment
\ item,
\]
Since this is equivalent to:
let array = [ item, item, " comment item, ]
Simple solutions will such as using \" fail, because just about anything
following the backslash is valid if we are inside a string:
echo "some
\ word
\" comment
\ word
Is equivalent to the valid command:
echo "some word" comment word
So, a line starting with a backslash can't be used for a comment.
Thinking about what would work (that is, currently it is an error), I
thought of using |\":
let array = [
\ item,
|\" comment
\ item,
\]
It looks a bit weird, but it would work. Any thoughts?
