When I have the following line commented out (by placing a ';' before it):

prints "miditrig triggered *******\n"
... (any other csound statement)


I get:
error: syntax error, unexpected STRING_TOKEN  (token ""

It looks like the escape character is not handled correctly when part of a
comment...

Hi Richard,

I think this is a python coding problem.  I just tested and failed
with the comment.py as-is.  However, if you use \\n instead of \n,
python won't convert the \n to an actual newline.  I think that is
what is happening, so when csound gets the code, it looks like:

;prints "vco1 triggered *******
"

instead of:

;prints "vco1 triggered *******\n"


Making the change to \\n in that triple-quoted string fixes it here.
I'll close out the github issue.
