Subject: Space after inline comment char
Date: Fri, 14 Apr 2006 15:53:07 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <32708.1145055187@olgas.newt.com> (raw)

(elisp) Comment Tips does not say whether a space should follow a single
semicolon comment or not. The example and most of the code shows that a
space does follow the semicolon, but comment-dwim does not insert one.
It would be nice if it did.

In other words, M-; should do this:

  (defvar foo)                         ; _

rather than this:

  (defvar foo)                         ;_

where _ is the cursor after the comment is inserted.

I imagine this is too big an apple to crack now, but it would be nice to
know if this is an issue that folks would want to work on, and that it
was shelved for later consideration.
