My text editor just greys it out either way, so I don't get this readability argument. Does anyone use an editor that doesn't highlight comments appropriately? Fortunately, my editor can insert single-line comments in bulk, so multi-line comments aren't a big deal to me. I don't really get why Python doesn't have them, though. > I would say you've made a case _against_ multiline coments.
