request on Selection/Comment

[Uli Kobsa]

Hi Marco,

When using edit/selection/comment, all the selected code is enclosed by /* ... */
But most of the time I need to have
-- on each line used.

I know that I can use Patrik Barels plugin to do it but I think this should be included to standard program.

maybe such a thing: on preferences one can define a standard comment type (/* or --). On the selection menu there are three items: comment, uncomment and comment (typ selection). Here the last one opens a small window where one can choose the comment style to be used for the current code.

And can you add the selections menu to the popup menu too?

thanks,
Uli

I'd like to add my vote to this enhancement request.

SQL*Plus doesn't do well with the /* .. */ C-style comments. It prefers the single line -- style.

Please add an option that allows one to permanently (in prefs) or temporarily (at time of selection comment) change the comment style.

Thanks, Marco!

Maybe you could use the commentlines plug-in I wrote. You can find it at http://bar-solutions.com
