Except for the block of copyright comments at the top of the file of course
;-)
And I frequently have double-line comments, but rarely more (except javadoc
of course)
I'd still like at LEAST the simple enhancement of making single line and
block comments work like the javadoc comments, in that if I am in the MIDDLE
of the comment somewhere, and I press [Enter], then it would insert the
necessary comment characters for me... i.e.
// this is | a comment
becomes
// this is
// |a comment
when you press enter. Just like in Javadoc.
