The PRFMINE XEDIT macro, part of http://www.vm.ibm.com/download/packages/descript.cgi?GD-XEDIT has a CMTB prefix command to make a new, empty, comment box. But, when entered one a label line like this MySubroutine: /* perform a check */ it gets converted to: /*----------------------------------------------------------*/ MySubroutine: /* perform a check */ /*----------------------------------------------------------*/ (this doesn't look nicely aligned with a variable font)
