You were right! It worked!!! Now Emacs (CVS version) comments out empty lines!
It's great! Thanks for all the help.
Can I ask you one more question about this?....
I noticed that the empty lines when they get commented have whitespace
after the comment character.....
e.g. a blank line ---> "# \n"
instead of "#\n"
Is it too much to ask to try to make comment-region change blanks to "#\n" instead
of "# \n"????
