Hi Daniel,

Fair enough. What happens here:
(gdb) print /* multi line
comment */ 1 + 2
I bet it gives "unterminated comment" (as soon as you fix the code).
This is a deviation from C, but it doesn't really bother me.

I know the feeling.
If I saw something useful about /* ... */ I'd be in favor, but right
now, I'd just as soon see it scrapped.
