string.commentDelete

Syntax	string.commentDelete (string)
Params	string is the string from which you wish to strip the comment.
Action	Removes a comment from a string.
Returns	string without the characters following the first occurrence of the chevron (´) character or the // comment marker.
Examples	string.commentDelete ("Rudy Kiesler ´ famous New Yorker")    » "Rudy Kiesler " string.commentDelete ("Rudy Kiesler // famous New Yorker")    » "Rudy Kiesler " string.commentDelete ("Rudy Kiesler ´ famous ´ in New York")    » "Rudy Kiesler " // Embedded comment also removed string.commentDelete ("Rudy Kiesler, famous New Yorker")    » "Rudy Kiesler, famous New Yorker" There is no comment in this example, so nothing is removed.
Notes	The chevron character is created on Mac OS by pressing Option-backslash. Note that string.commentDelete finds the first occurrence of the chevron character or // and removes the rest of the line. Embedded comments or multiple comments are therefore also removed. This is standard formatting for a Frontier script but if you use chevrons for other purposes, you should be aware of its behavior with respect to this verb. Beware using this verb on URLs, since they contain the // comment marker. This verb ignores chevrons enclosed in quotation marks.
