comment out more than 1 line at once?

Dear all, is there a way in Python to comment out blocks of code without putting a # in front of each line? Somethings like C's /* block of code here is commented out */ Thanks, Riko -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

Re: comment out more than 1 line at once?

following post will do the job. I use it to test pieces of a modules which usually is imported from another. For testing different parts, I usually have different __main__ sections in the file Cheers, Riko Aaron Bingham wrote: Riko Wichmann wrote: Dear all, is there a way in Python

Ha! have just discover C-c # myself (sometimes it helps to actually look at the emacs menus, even if you are used to using the key-bindings :) Better yet works "Meta-;" as Bernhard suggested, because it comments and un-comments marked line! Thanks for all the helpful tips! - Riko Riko,

Tried that already. At least, I hope I guessed at least one of the possible identifiers correct: MSIE6.0, MSIE 6.0, MSIE/6.0 When my opera is set to identify as MSIE, it sends "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; X11; Linux i686) Opera 7.54 [en]". Hi Marc, thanks for the hint! that brought me a

inline function call

hi everyone, I'm googeling since some time, but can't find an answer - maybe because the answer is 'No!'. Can I call a function in python inline, so that the python byte compiler does actually call the function, but sort of inserts it where the inline call is made? Therefore avoiding the funct

Hey guys, thanks for all the quick replies! In addition to the tips Peter and Stuart gave me above, I also followed some of the hints found under http://wiki.python.org/moin/PythonSpeed/PerformanceTips That greatly improved performance from about 3 minutes initially (inner loop about 2000, out
