I believe @dbeniamine (the author of the Vim plugin) could help you with this issue, at least he could give you some info about his approach.

Hi @mre,

It would be nice to be able to toggle the comments off/on (for one snippet).
It is possible to fully disable comments completely, but it is not the same,
because usually, you want to get an answer with the comments, read them, and then remove them if you don't need them.

I agree with you, in the vim plugin I implemented this by two means :

1. There is a variable to enable and disable globally comments (witch you already have)
2. I keep locally a query history, and give the possibility to replay the last query toggling comments

I hope this can help you

So smart! I'll go with this implementation. Thanks for the tip!

I've develop a message box to ask if the user wants to display comments in a query if the query was already searched before by using the extension permanent cache.I think that it would be more useful if it use extensions temporary cache requestCache. I didn't understood if this was the original idea. What is your thougths?

[mre]

I think we could add another command "Snippet: Toggle comments", which would rerun the last query from the cache and set the Q parameter accordingly:

• With comments: curl cht.sh/lua/table+keys
• Without comments: curl cht.sh/lua/table+keys?Q

The setting should also be persistent, so if comments were toggled off, they would stay off for future queries.

Seems like a better idea, @mre. I will try to work on it, this command would be very useful for me.
