I often use if 0: bunch of lines of code
That way, it's very easy to reenable the code, or to add an else, etc. I can even put things like 'if 0 and USE_FOO_FEATURE' to document what is being commented out. It's much more flexible than commenting out. -- Want to play tabletop RPGs over the internet?
