Wouldn't it be nice if the sequence '#{\n' caused the block that begins with the open brace became a nop. So quick and simple to comment out/uncomment an if clause, or the body of a for loop, or an entire subroutine:

... if( .. ) #{ ... } ... while( ... ) #{ ... }

Literally, a block comment :)


Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

The "good enough" maybe good enough for the now, and perfection maybe unobtainable, but that should not preclude us from striving for perfection, when time, circumstance or desire allow.
