in reply to removing C style comments from text files

Why would one want to remove comments from a source file? The compiler doesn't mind.

    It's an assignment for an intro Perl course.

    UPDATE - hey hey hey now. I've always tried to be up front about my needs, and I always write as much code as I can before I ask for help, and I always do my best to learn what I can from all suggested code before I just go and use it.
