Colour comments by intent
Start a comment with !, ?, or * and it takes a colour. Start one with a second // and it fades, because that is code you commented out.
When you would want it
A warning, an open question, and a line of dead code are three different kinds of writing that all render the same grey. One character tells them apart.

How to use it, step by step
Off by default.
- Line comments only - a /** block */ begins with * by convention, and colouring those would mark every documented function in a project.
Why this beats the usual way
Other editors give you this through a stack of extensions that each need installing, updating, and reconciling with each other - and half of them reset when a colleague opens the project. ADCode ships these behaviours in the box, on by default, identical on every machine that opens your folder, and each one is a single switch away if you disagree.
