Subject: one key-press to comment out lines of code?
Date: Wed, 30 Apr 2014 17:14:03 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87fvku94ms.fsf@skimble.plus.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 740 bytes --]

Whilst I'm still learning emacs and gnus I'm constantly adding code to my
"setup-testbed.el" file, and then finding later that it doesn't do what its
expected to do, or I don't like the outcome, so I then comment it
out. Currently, I'm doing it laboriously by hand, but is it possible to
highlight it and then with one key-press insert ";" in front of each and every
line of the code please?

I haven't seen this ability anywhere, but being able to do it would make
things a whole lot easier for me, so, can it be done please folks?

Sharon.
