Merging continuation lines in a Au3 script.

This regular expression seems to work for me, so I was wondering could others test it please. Thanks.

Seems to work here

Hi!

[guinness 1,466]

Excellent Nessie!

I've been wanting to ask and since this is "my thread" I will go off topic. Where have you come from? You seem to be helping quite a bit recently, so good on you and thanks. Oh, but surely "being seen" constantly will do badly on tourism in Loch Ness?

Edit: It's good to see new users getting into the spirit of helping out.

There are some errors

Hope you solve them soon

Thanks PhoenixXL.

[guinness 1,466]

But useful, I will save this for when I need to test my Au3 regular expressions.

[guinness 1,466]

A nice little regular expression by ProgAndy to remove single line comments (not in quotes.)
