I'm writing a bash script where I need to strip comments from Lua files, which are formatted:
--like this
foo="bar" --or like this
--[[ or like this ]]
--[[
or
like
this
]]
I know I can use sed 's/--.*$//' ${my_file}
to remove the single-line comments, but how can I address the multi-line one?
Thanks!
