I guess the following questions is primarily for Miller and other core Pd devs/contributors, past and current. How, hard would it be to add support for "\n" inside comments (specifically), so that they can support multi-paragraph comments? Is this something that would completely mess up the rest of the parser or is more or less trivial? I spent a few minutes this afternoon studying code and am not yet sure if this is something that may be too complicated to pull off quickly...
Hi Ico -
I gave that a bit of thought and concluded it would be best to do that as a separate object (because comments are highly integrated with messages/objects/atoms and changing on of them would reverberate everywhere).
cheers Miller
