Hi, this feature is on the change request list.

Though, you might use a workaround:

let comment := "put comment here";

Yes we need an easy comment function such as // instead of just assigning a meaningless variable as a workaround...

Apparently just the quotes are needed, the "let" and variable name is not needed. So, you can insert comments using this;

"---INSERT COMMENT HERE---";

Definitely agree re: // or /* for comments!! :-) 

We can also comment several lines like:

"
comment line 1
comment line 2
comment line 3
" ;

But //, or ///, or /* are a must.

When debugging if we need to block more than a few lines of code, the above solution does not work if we already have comments (double quotes) inside de code block .

So having:

/// for starting a multiline code block comment, and

/// for ending 

Woub be a great help.

@Jose, Thanks for pointing out multiline commenting between a single pair of double quotes. I had been using a pair of double quotes for each line . I know it's not perfect, but you can add /* right after the first double quote and */ right before the second double quote. I agree about wanting to block out some code that has quotes in it. When I see how many double quotes I have to double-up, I have to decide whether to cut and paste the code block into a text editor or double quote.
