Configuration

pylocc uses a language.json file to define the comment syntax for different languages. You can customize this file to add new languages or modify existing ones.

Each language entry in language.json has the following structure:

{
  "LanguageName": {
    "extensions": ["ext1", "ext2"],
    "line_comment": ["//"],
    "multi_line": [["/*", "*/"]]
  }
}

• extensions: A list of file extensions for the language.
• line_comment: A list of strings that represent single-line comments.
• multi_line: A list of pairs of strings that represent the start and end of multi-line comments.
