Sure, just post that (not too large) piece of code you are having problems with...

You can remove perl comments with a one line command. Is the syntax of rail comments the same?

Refer to -i and -p in perldoc perlrun.

Code
perl -pi.bak -e"$_ = <> if /^\s*#/" your_file.pl

Your OS may require single quotes rather than double.
Good Luck,
Bill

This does not remove *all* comments, and it might even remove lines which are NOT comments.
