Is there a way of making multiline comments in Scilab?

I am new to Scilab and I am trying to make a multi-line comment. Accessing the documentation, they only say this about comments:

enter image description here

Source: https://help.scilab.org/doc/5.3.3/en_US/comments.html

Apparently, there is no way of making a multi-line comment. However, it is hard to believe, at least for me, that the authors of the language didn't think about this feature. Does any body know?

You can easily comment whole code blocks by highlighting (one or) more lines and then press Ctrl+D or from the menu: Format > Comment Selection. This will place the // at the beginnig of every line automaticallay.

To uncomment something, highlight it, then Ctrl+Shift+D, or Format > Uncomment Selection menu.

It seems that multiple lines comments were introduced in Scilab 6.0.0.

From the manual:

Another way to comment a block of code is to use /* at the beginning and */ at the end.
