How to comment a line in thea GM script?

[Ben]

How do I tell GM that a line is just a comment and should not be executed?

 

I though "//" at the beginning (or somewhere in the mid) of a line would do the trick (=mark the remaining part right of it as a comment)

 

But this seems to be not the case.

 

When I tried it out commenting out for a script command then unpredicatable results occur.

 

So is there a real safe comment tag?

// don't work?
thats weird, maybe you are using a editor that somehow is nuking the newlines.

/* */ is the block comment from C that javascript support, you can
comment a line just by enclosing it in the /* and */ symbol.

this will work, even if your text editor do something vile with \n

Does the newline \n in GM scripts have to be in

 

- Windows style Hex 0D 0A

or

- in Unix Style Hex \0A

 

or is it not relevant (=both are accepted)?

If you are trying to use the comment in a script header then you will probably get unpredictable results, otherwise they should work as expected.  Any sort of newline should work.
