I am looking for a command-line tool that removes all comments from an input
file and returns the stripped output. It'd be nice it supports popular
programming languages like c, c++, python, php, javascript, html, css, etc.  It
has to be syntax-aware as opposed to regexp-based, since the latter will catch
the pattern in source code strings as well. Is there any such tool?
I am fully aware that comments are useful information and often leaving them
as they are is a good idea. It's just that my focus is on different use cases.
No such tool exists yet.
General utility to remove/strip all comments from source code in various languages?
