And of course for NEdit, all one needs to do is select:

Preferences | Default Settings | Customize menus | Macro Menu

Then select the "New" option at the top of the menu list,

Give it a name (I call this r_comment),

Enter the following code:

replace_in_selection("^","#","regex")

click on "Apply" and then "OK"

You will have an item named "r_comment" on your macro menu

Simply select the area you wish to comment out and run the macro.

To remove comments, you can program another macro (r_nocomment)

replace_in_selection("#","")

You can give both of these a keystroke invocation if you wish.

Happy commenting!

Jim
