Hi,
as always, thanks for the great work!
This is just a proposal for an alternative syntax for julia comments in code blocks.
The usual style is
## comment
and this will render as# comment
.However,
##
is one of the code cell delimiters in VSCode (which are not user configurable).Thus, the usual syntax can hinder a code cell oriented workflow.
I implemented
#~
, added docs and some tests.~
is up for debate, but it seems to be present on most keyboard layouts and does not clash with comments in code blocks using other languages.#~Comment
are allowed and render as#Comment
.The usual
##
requires a blank space. What is the rationale behind this?
