Lex,
Often I need to place /*..*/ or html <!--- ... ---> around selection.
Addons plugin allow to define one letter only in beginning and in the end
and finally doesn't work - just insert empty space before and after
selection.
May be I do something wrong?

Hello,
In a html file, use of [CTRL]+[e], nicely add/remove <!-- --> around
selection ! as you want !
I think that must only work for languages that do not have a line
oriented comment configured.
But for php file only single line comment works '//'
I don't understand how it works, maybe cause of mixed language use
html/js/php, they share some functionnality.
In documentation [1] it is written you can specify comment_open and
comment_close in filetypes.php, so i try as follow :
comment_open=/*
comment_close=*/
Don't work :(, it is still single line comment '//'
So, I add a line with blank value for comment_single, as follow :
comment_single=
After reloading configuration, commenting a block, in a php file, will
append html/xml style comment (<!-- -->) and removing it with keybinding not
working, changing comment_open and comment_close in filetypes.html with :
comment_open=/*
comment_close=*/
Works for php file, but the problem is now with html file comment, it will
use /* and */ and can't remove it with keybinding :(
So, is it possible to use comment bloc with php and html filetype in the
same time ?
Geany only supports files as one language, it can't handle mixed
languages like PHP in HTML so you can only have one comment form per
filetype.
In fact the commenting code does not understand the language at all,
it just applies the character sequences configured in the filetype as
text, single line comments for preference (after all the menu items
are "comment line") or open/close comments as a fallback.
This seems unnecessarily restrictive. C has two comment formats : //
and /**/ ; it would be good have a means of using either : presumably
a secondary hot key. That could also cover OP's requirement.
Since the mechanism is there to parse the code and insert the edits,
presumably this could be added fairly easily.
