Syntax: ENTER COMMENT comment_type
Converts pseudocode into comments using block or line format.
If the cursor is on a pseudocode placeholder, the command moves the
placeholder's text into a comment and replaces the placeholder with
the LSE$GENERIC placeholder. The cursor is then positioned on the
generic placeholder.
If the cursor is in a comment, the LSE editor finds a nearby
pseudocode placeholder and converts its content into a comment. The
LSE$GENERIC placeholder is inserted in its place and the cursor
remains on the generic placeholder.
If the cursor is not on a placeholder or a comment, the command
inserts a new comment and puts the LSE$GENERIC placeholder inside the
comment. The cursor is then positioned on the generic placeholder.
If there is a sequence of pseudocode placeholders and a selected
range is active, all text in the selected range is converted into a
comment and the placeholders are replaced with LSE$GENERIC
placeholders accordingly. The cursor is positioned on the first
placeholder after the comment.
The following example converts pseudocode to comments in line format:
«This is something interesting.»
Entering the ENTER COMMENT LINE command causes LSE to convert the
pseudocode placeholder to a comment as follows:
{tbs} ! This is something interesting.
The following example converts pseudocode to comments in block
format:
«We will move the third item from the left to be the»
«next to the last item from the right in this case.»
If there is a selected range active for both lines, entering the
ENTER COMMENT BLOCK command causes LSE to convert the pseudocode
placeholder to comments, as follows:
--We will move the third item from the left to be the
--next to the last item from the right in this case.
{tbs}
