I like your version and would very much like to use it. The "save-restriction" is a nice touch too. I copied your version essentially verbatim into my .emacs.... (defun cs-py-comment-region(beg end) (interactive "r") (save-restriction (narrow-to-region beg end) (py-comment-region) (delete-trailing-whitespace))) It give me the following error message when I hightlight a region with mouse and then type C-ac which is setup to call this function.... save-restriction: Wrong number of arguments: (lambda (beg end &optional arg) "Like `comment-region' but uses double hash (`#') comment starter." (interactive "r P") (let ((comment-start py-block-comment-prefix)) (comment-region beg end arg))), 0 Do you know what this error means and how to fix?
