Does not support py file comment style

[ronak1009]

I have python files. I need to add headers to it. Following is my settings for the extensions:

   "fileHeaderComment.parameter":{
        "*":{
            // "commentbegin": "/*",
            // "commentprefix": " *",
            // "commentend": " */",
            "company": "My Company.",
            "license_text" : [  "Contains trade secrets of My Company",
                "Copyright notice does not imply publication.",
                "Decompilation or disassembly of this software is strictly prohibited."]
        }
    },
    "fileHeaderComment.template":{
        "*":[
            "${commentbegin}",
            "${commentprefix} Copyright: ${company}, ${year}. All rights reserved.",
            "${commentprefix} ${license_text}",
            "${commentend}"
        ]
    }

On running the command the format of comment added is as follows:

'''
 Copyright: My Company, 2020. All rights reserved.
 Contains trade secrets of My Company.
Copyright notice does not imply publication.
Decompilation or disassembly of this software is strictly prohibited.
'''

The comments are written as strings.

for an interim solution, add code below to your setting

"fileHeaderComment.parameter":{
  "python":{
      "commentprefix": ""
  }
}

Native python does not support multiline comment blocks. Also, using triple quotes ''' some comment ''' is considered as docstring. The PEP 8 document also indicates use of # comment style. Although using docstring as multi-line comment is a small hack.

Using docstring style of multiline is also impacting the compiled files as they are larger compared to using the '#' for comments.
