How to use multi-line (Block) comment in sikuli IDE?

Question

I am using sikuli IDE for automation. In sikuli IDE, we can put single line comment as '#'.

But I couldn't find any way to put multi-line(block) comment in sikuli IDE. I am referring sikuli official documentation site http://doc.sikuli.org.

I have tried
/*

*/

but it does not work.

Currently commenting whole blocks is not available in Sikuli IDE, but there is an open request for such functionality in Sikuli 1.1.0. This is the source.

Based on Sikuli documentation site section 'How to use this document', one can use any syntax of the Python language in Sikuli script.

Hence, the link for Python's multi-line comment may help.

'''
This is a multiline
comment.
'''

Python syntax for multiline (block) comment is /* */ . I have tried this. It does not work. – Gitanjali Jul 17 '13 at 08:31
Use triple quoted string as: ''' you could do something like this as a multi-line comment''' – brg Jul 17 '13 at 08:34
I also have tried ''' ''' (triple quotes), even this also didn't work. – Gitanjali Jul 17 '13 at 08:57
