I've noticed that when compiling CoffeeScript, none of the single-line comments are retained.
This is problematic as I'm trying to write a greasemonkey/userscript in CoffeeScript, and they rely on comments for the metadata block.
I've tried using backticks, but there seems to be a problem with backticks around comments:
`// ==UserScript==
// @version 1.0
// ==/UserScript==`
alert "hello world"
Becomes
// ==UserScript==
// @version 1.0
// ==/UserScript==;alert("hello world");
And if I add an extra line before the closing backtick I get:
// ==UserScript==
// @version 1.0
// ==/UserScript==
;alert("hello world");
It would also be nice to have the convenience of automatic wrapping.. but I suppose without -bare the metadata block would be wrapped as well.
Is there a better way I could be going about this?
