Re: Multi-Line Comments

Excerpts from Ingy dot Net's message of Thu Oct 15 00:06:05 +0200 2009:

There another for of multiline comments than /* */ that would I think match
with Yaml.

For instance Perl, Ruby (and I don't know about Python) have this from.

In these language the syntax is:

=begin
When =begin is found at the beginning of a line
(it must also ends the line, I think) then it
starts a multiline comment. This comment can simply
be ended by a =end on a single line too.
=end

Maybe Yaml should adopt other markers than =begin/=end, but I think
it will be nice extension to the line of markers like '---' and '...'.
We could have a new marker stating a comment block that will be ended
by a '...' marker for instance.
