NAME

Comment::Block - Adds block style comments to Perl

SYNOPSIS

use Comment::Block;
#/*
  A block
  of commented
  things
#*/
..normal execution..

DESCRIPTION

Provide a better way of doing block comments instead of using POD or always false if blocks.

SYNTAX HIGHLIGHTING

You can add the below to ~/.vim/after/syntax/perl.vim to add Syntax Highlighting for the comment blocks. This is only for VIM currently but if someone sends me more for other editors I will add them here.

syn region perlCommentBlock     start="#/\*" end="#\*/" contains=perlTodo
if version < 508
  command -nargs=+ HiLink hi link <args>
else
  command -nargs=+ HiLink hi def link <args>
endif
HiLink perlCommentBlock Comment

VERSION

This documentation describes version 0.01.
