Description
So in my profile I already set this

However when I format the comment suppose I want the line to be like this
/**************************************************************
* METHOD : countCSVLine
* IMPORT : none
* EXPORT : lineNum (int)
* ASSERTION : Reading csv file & return the number of lines
**************************************************************/
but what happens is, it will become like this:
/**************************************************************
* METHOD : countCSVLine IMPORT : none EXPORT : lineNum (int) ASSERTION : Reading csv file & return the number of
* lines
**************************************************************/
