(Only if I want to comment out or in a larger piece of code I use the other form.) - The good thing is that you can nest the two forms; e.g. use of '//' for regular comments and use the other form for temporary code activation/deactivation. - In practice I use // without thinking whether it's supported by the "C" version I use, but it never was a problem. BTW, I also use '//' for rather static long block comments, but I have to admit that my editor (Vim) supports reformatting with a few keystrokes; so others may prefer /* */ comments for that. > And yeah, I use Emacs, you *might* say it is ancient but I love Emacs. There's no need to vindicate that. - There's reasons why folks stay with ("ancient") Emacs and Vi/Vim! Janis
