• BLOCK_BEG - Begin of the Code Section / BLOCK_END - End of the Code Section

Possible parameters: any regex expression

Default BLOCK_BEG parameter: ^[*"][ ]*[>]{2}|^[ ]*["][ ]*[>]{2} (it means: * >> or " >>)

Default BLOCK_END parameter: ^[*"][ ]*[>]{2}|^[ ]*["][ ]*[>]{2} (it means * << or " <<)

​These parameters is a regular expression, it is a comment format, which can be used to transfer a complete set of code into the TS document​.

​

For example:

Begin of the code - Regular expression: ^[*"][ ]*[>]{2}|^[ ]*["][ ]*[>]{2}

It means these comment format of code:

* >> 

" >>

End of the code - Regular expression: ^[*"][ ]*[<]{2}|^[ ]*["][ ]*[<]{2}

It means these comment format of code: 

* <<  

" ​<<

​​

In this case, if you want to transfer a complete code section to the TS document, you must use the following comments in the program code:

​

* >> Begin - Comment of Statement

code line 1

code line 2

code line 3

* << End - Comment of Statement 

​

OR

​

" >> Begin - Comment of Statement

code line 1

code line 2

code line 3

" << End - Comment of Statement 

​​​

If you do not use a closing comment (* <<), the code lines are transferred to the TS document from the opening comment to the first empty line.

​

For example the "code line 1" and "code line 2" will be transferred to the TS document, but the "code line 3" won't be transferred.

* >> Begin - Comment of Statement

code line 1

code line 2

​

code line 3​
