Only single-character comment start and end sequences are represented thus.\n\
Two-character sequences are represented as described below.\n\

There can be up to two orthogonal comment sequences. This is to support\n\
language modes such as C++. By default, all comment sequences are of style\n\
-a, but you can set the comment sequence style to b (on the second character of a\n\
-comment-start, or the first character of a comment-end sequence) by using\n\
+a, but you can set the comment sequence style to b (on the second character\n\
+of a comment-start, or the first character of a comment-end sequence) using\n\
this flag:\n\
b means C is part of comment sequence b.\n\
