RE: [Dev-C++] Comment Delimiters

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

Often the one asking a question don't really know exactly what they want -
or at least doesn't specify it clearly enough.

Yes, multiline comments should of course use /* ... */ but very often when
someone gets bothered about commenting away a large number of lines, they
are not thinking about a big block-comment, but a large block of unwanted
code.
