Sphinx (the most common Python documentation tool) uses
#:
comments to signal documentation comments for its "autodoc" module.There is no known overlap with other comment punctuation, so this should be a safe addition.
TM_COMMENT_START_2
is also added to be able to undo the comment usingtoggle_comment
, but unfortunately it does not work like this currently becauseDefault/comment.py
does not prioritize the longest prefix match of all available comment styles.https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/extensions/autodoc.html#directive-autoattribute
