    Description

      I think it would be usefull to have (added), in LSL, C-like multiline comments (/* ... */) to comment/disable large pieces of code: now it's really boring comment/uncommenting pieces of scripts to leave them in place for the future.
      This may provide neat comments also, but the main thing is enable/disable mid/huge slices of code.

      Now

      // for(a=1; a<=10; a++)

      { // llSay(0,"we're at "+(string)a); // ...some statements... // ...some statements... // }

      with C-like comments

      /* (re-enable this piece if you want to...)
      for(a=1; a<=10; a++)

      { llSay(0,"we're at "+(string)a); ...some statements... ...some statements... }

      */
