Hi, I just tried it. I may be missing something, but BBEdit already does what you want.
Try selecting just a part of a line and choose Text > Comment Lines. This does not insert any line breaks in the comment. Try selecting a whole line - including the line break (this is what you get e.g. with a mouse click in the number gutter). Now, the Comment-command adds line breaks with the comment tags. So, maybe you just had whole lines selected while using it? Regards, Roland Am 19.
