Oh come on Ron !    If Microsoft were bombed into oblivion that would leave
us with Macintosh to pick on and that would be about as much fun as shooting
fish in a bowl.

Oh, you are still alive.  I was worried someone kicked your power cord from
the wall.  Admit it, you're too busy cataloging all those links I gave you
this morning to bother with us mere mortals, aren't you?

The solution is to never follow a comments // immediately with any
character.  Spaces prevent this from happening and I'm already relearning my
commenting habits to try and prevent this.
There's always the Edit/Replace in the Windows versions editor also. You
could make all // into //(spc) or remove the "file:" likewise.

Same here.  In my original post I spent about 5 minutes trying to type //
(without the space) and finally had to resort to 'double "/"' instead.

WAIT!!!!  I just got the // above to work!!!!  Type a slash, then a space,
then another slash, then another space, then back up and remove the space in
between the slashes.  Who said MS products aren't user friendly??

Netscape does that too, but if you leave a space before and
after the // then it doesn't do it.
