Dear Bash developers, In effort to create better commented code, I have run across the following missing bit of functionality: No block comments Which prevents such useful constructs as: echo "foo" #! useful comment 1 !# \ $(somefunction) #! Another comment !# \ "bar" # standard line comment can go here
yum install \ package1 #! why it is being installed !# \ package2 #! why this one is needed !# \ ... packageN # Reason for final package Thank you for your time and consideration -Jeremiah
