I have a gvim 7.0 (win32 with +comments) that seems to be ignoring the
"set comments" line in my .vimrc file. I can submit the entire .vimrc
file if desired but the relevant line is:
set comments=s:/**,mb:*,ex:*/
What I get is this (vim default?):
/*
**
**
*/
and what I expect is this (phpdoc standard syntax):
/**
*
*
*/
This seems to indicate that vim was compiled without +comments but
according to :version (posted below), this directive was included. This
is an unmodified gvim binary as downloaded very recently from vim.org.
I doubt that this is a bug, but I don't see what else could be causing
this.
Thanks for any help!

I haven't delved very deep into the 'comments' options. In CSS files it is set
(by the ftplugin, I guess) to
comments=s1:/*,mb:*,ex:*/
and I get
/*
*
*
*/
With your settings, I see
/**
*__
*__
*/
where the underscores represent spaces which are removed if I add no text; but
there must be some other relevant settings, because I see it if I do it after
":set ft=css" but not in a virgin [No Name] buffer, where Vim adds no comment
leader.
-- Are you sure you typed _both_ asterisks after the slash in the first
comment line?
Best regards,
Tony.
