sed command to remove comments
Hello,
i am replying rather old post, but i have the similar problem with slight variation.
when i use command:
sed '/*,*/d' somefile.c
suppose the file somefile.c contains
line
/* this is an example */
its removing comeplete line but when i have a line
/*
this is an example
*/
its removing only /* and */
and not the text between /* and */
i can easily implement the commad using command line arguments.
but i want to know is there any command that deletes the entire characters present under /* and */ when they are in different lines.
Thanks,

eof(3tcl) Tcl Built-In Commands eof(3tcl)
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
eof - Check for end of file condition on channel
SYNOPSIS
eof channelId
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
Returns 1 if an end of file condition occurred during the most recent input operation on channelId (such as gets), 0 otherwise.
ChannelId must be an identifier for an open channel such as a Tcl standard channel (stdin, stdout, or stderr), the return value from an
invocation of open or socket, or the result of a channel creation command provided by a Tcl extension.
EXAMPLES
Read and print out the contents of a file line-by-line:
set f [open somefile.txt]
while {1} {
set line [gets $f]
if {[eof $f]} {
close $f
break
}
puts "Read line: $line"
}
Read and print out the contents of a file by fixed-size records:
set f [open somefile.dat]
fconfigure $f -translation binary
set recordSize 40
while {1} {
set record [read $f $recordSize]
if {[eof $f]} {
close $f
break
}
puts "Read record: $record"
}
