.

use Notepad++. Open the script and remove all lines that starts with --. Then manually remove the /* */ comments.

hey

this is only quick script to remove comments on end of line when they start with --

ms = "C:\\test.ms"
 
linesArr = (dotnetClass "System.IO.File").ReadAllLines ms
 
for i = 1 to linesArr.count do if (a = findstring linesArr[i] "--") != undefined do linesArr[i] = substring linesArr[i] 1 (a - 1)
 
(dotnetClass "System.IO.File").WriteAllLines ms linesArr

but if double dash is in string rest of line will be removed too
to detect strings and comments with /* */ in script is more difficult

try if this simple answer works for you
