I don't think there's one right answer here. Using semicolons for comments is clearer since those are free-form comments which ignore structure, but both #_ and (comment ...) take structure into account, and thus need to be at least syntactically valid forms. For instance, (comment ...) is usually used for example code in which case you want it to be highlighted like normal code. If there were a way to indicate commentedness without sacrificing this it might make sense, but I'm not sure what that would look like. -Phil -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
