[New-bugs-announce] [issue14663] Cannot comment out comments

[Nul Character]

New submission from Nul Character <nulcharacter at gmail.com>:

When attempting to comment out a comment and thus nullifying it, the interpreter just double comments the line. This behavior works with multiline comments, however, the single line comments "double-comment" the line.
