In C++ mode C-h c M-; always replys comment-dwim (like it does in all my programming modes) and M-; usually produces a // style comment. However earlier today something changed. M-; started producing /* */ style comments. Upon restarting Emacs it went back to // style. What caused the switch. There are times when I'd like to do this purposely! Thanks
