[ruby-core:33952] Re: Multi-line comments

From: deepak kannan <kannan.deepak@...>

List: ruby-core #33952
hi,
only thing to be aware of is that, "=begin" and "=end" comments are
processed by rdoc. Just something to be aware of.
I use emacs and it is pretty easy to comment and uncomment multiple lines by
'M-x comment-or-uncomment-region'

on an unrelated note, i have used common-lisp a little and i like their
convention of comment styles.
http://www.labri.fr/perso/strandh/Teaching/MTP/Common/Strandh-Tutorial/indentation.html(under
number of semicolons)
interestingly clojure does not have this, but then i have not used clojure
http://faustus.webatu.com/clj-quick-ref.html#comments-and-documen

rather than multiline comments, i would like something like
comment-conventions like common-lisp
also YARD is pretty interesting.

cheers,
deepak
