Yeah, I use gray. But my issue is more that the comments take up space. No
matter what colour you use - even white. With big projects I want to see as
much code as possible. I usually work on a 21", set to 1280 x 1024, but I
would still like to be able to see more. (Maybe I should place another 21" on
top of it... :))

I tend to write many comments, but short ones. So I doubt this would help me
much. Still, it might be worth giving it a try. Thanks for the tip.

Being able to quickly (key-combo) toggle comments on/off would be even nicer.
(Actually, it is the kind of subtle feature I'd hoped to find in Script
Debugger. Maybe Mark Aldritt can consider this a feature request? ;))
