I've started working with Jinja (quite nice - way better than PSP).
One need that has come up almost right away is the ability to quickly
comment out code while developing/testing. Is there any way to do
this currently?

Hoi,

In Jinja 1.0 this is possible using {# foo #}.

Regards,

Been reading the 1.0 docs - very nicely done!

It occurs to me that {% raw %}{% endraw %} is actually even more
useful than {# #} for commenting out blocks of code - it will still
show up in html, but when developing/testing, you can ignore that. The
important thing is that the execution of the commented out code was
prevented.
