Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch, upstream
File: /usr/share/emacs/21.3/lisp/newcomment.el
When commenting and uncommenting regions with `comment-region' (C-c C-c
in Java mode, for example), it's reasonable to expect an unqualified
negative argument (C-u - or C-- where available) to do the default
uncomment thing. But only the unqualified positive argument (C-u) does
so. Here's a patch to make C-- C-c C-c act as `uncomment-region'. It
does not affect explicit negative arguments such as C-u - 1 C-c C-c or
C-- C-1 C-c C-c.

If you think more changes are still needed in the current Emacs version, 24.3,
I suggest opening a new report directly with upstream Emacs.
