Typing (* and *) on a few line will always be quicker, easier, and less confusing than any rcs diffs/restores. Once you delete the code you can no longer see it or add pieces back in without retrieving it from an external store. I'm not saying nested comments solve every problem, just that there exists a certain (perhaps small) class of problems they solve particularly well. Personally, I rarely leave code commented out beyond a single coding session. But my particular coding habits aren't relevant here. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
