One of the things I've wanted to do in almost any of the
programming languages I've used, is comment out in a simple
way a fairly large piece of code, without having to worry
about whether that code itself contains comments.

There are three ways to do this with which I'm familiar

(a) Have a comment introduced by a sentinel and terminated
    by end-of-line.  One then comments out by inserting
    the sentinel in front of every line:

	C Debugging code commented out
	C
	CC Print current value of chipmunk queue
	C
	C  CALL CHQPNT(CHQ)

    Most editors have an easy way to do this.

(b) Have comments introduced and terminated by paired sentinels
    that strictly nest:

	{ BEGIN Debugging code commented out

	{ print current value of chipmunk queue }

	chipmunk queue print ( chipmunk queue );

	Debugging commented out code END }

(c) Use line comments normally and reserve block comments for
    commenting out:

	/* Debugging code commented out

	// print current value of chupmunk queue

	ChQ.Print(ChQ)

	*/

All of these seem to work moderately well; in a language that permits
none of them I sometimes get very frustrated!
