C-h v comment-style RET Stefan PS: This issue of "comments in column 0" was one of the original motivation for writing newcomment.el. You'll notice that every style other than the default one addresses your request. The default style was added late in response to Richard who insisted that "comments in column 0" should be the default style, which partly defeated my efforts since very few people know of comment-style.
