Comments lost on format

[darianmiller]

First - thanks for doing DelphiFmt! 🎉

I had a little time and started a little front-end tonight using your formatting code and quickly ran into a show-stopper. I looked through options and didn't see if this was configurable, but it appears comments are stripped using default settings.

Example:

type

  TDropsComments = record  // all comments will
    AItem: Integer;        //will be lost
    Another: string;       //  after format
  end;

(*
This is also gone
*)

implementation

{ Same here }

procedure Foo; //test
begin
end;

It's interesting that test_unit_complex_unformatted.pas starts with a comment header and it remains in the formatted file but if you add any other comments into the file, they get stripped.

This stays:

{===============================================================================
  DelphiFmt Test File — Deliberately Unformatted
  This file is intentionally malformatted to exercise every formatter rule.
  After formatting, inspect output visually. Format again to verify idempotency.
===============================================================================}

Using latest version 0.1.0

ok, thanks for reporting. I will look into this. I'm folding this into Metamorf so if u want the bleeding edge (u will need those sources), join my discord and DM me, so I can give you fixes when they are ready. Not ready just yet to make the sources public.

Ok, check your dm in discord. I sent you a build that now should work. Let me know.
