don't strip "/" in string data

String input will lose "/" characters because of comment cleanup regular expressions.
An example for such an input would be formatted dates (01/01/1970)

My suggestion for the fix is to reformulate the cleanup regular expressions by simply grouping the comment identifier. An example can be reviewed on following debuggex https://www.debuggex.com/r/ZKeWxc6sKlPLuD_H
