no_comments strips comments from various file types
Project description
Easy way to strip comments from various file types.
Description:
Comment stripping utility. Handles both inline comments and block comments. Strips C/C++ comments by default (both inline and block).
Usage:
cat source_code_file | no_comments > out
Features:
strip only inline comments / block comments
configurable delimiters
strip only comments at the beggining of the line
preserve empty lines which contained comments before
Installation:
easy_install no_comments or pip install no_comments

Notes:
This utility is DUMB - as it’s not language specific it doesn’t understand the syntax (It will remove comments in strings, ignore nested comments or so).
