That style may make sense in places where you have a long prg where several classes, or several groups of related routines reside. A long comment like that may help to delineate them when scrolling - though Document View makes this mostly unnecessary. I do such long lines in log files (when logging into a textfile), to point out phases, when something started or ended. Helps eyeballing. For code, I agree with your doubts.

Rox's Rule on Comments: don't tell me what you are doing, I can read code. Tell me why are you doing it (or why in a non-standard way, so I don't try to fix it).
