Hi Kushan

Thorsten did answer your question. I've changed it to look similar to
your request.

=begin

Comment line 1
Comment line 2
Comment line 3

=end

Hmm, I wonder if Thorsten's reply looked too much like English and got
ignored? :)

Cheers
Mohit.

just keep in mind that kind of comments are reserved for ruby doc, so
best practices would tell not to use them unless for that purpose..
which leaves us without a general purpose multi line comment in ruby (AFAIK)
