The comment plugin provides auto commenting/uncommenting.
The default binding to comment/uncomment a line is Alt-/,
but you can easily modify that in your bindings.json file:
{
"Alt-g": "comment.comment"
}You can also execute a command which will do the same thing as the binding:
> comment
If you have a selection, the plugin will comment all the lines selected.
The comment type will be auto detected based on the filetype, but it is only available for certain filetypes:
- c:
// %s - c++:
// %s - d:
// %s - go:
// %s - html:
<!-- %s --> - java:
// %s - javascript:
// %s - julia:
# %s - lua:
-- %s - perl:
# %s - php:
// %s - python:
# %s - python3:
# %s - ruby:
# %s - rust:
// %s - shell:
# %s - swift:
// %s
If your filetype is not available here, you can simply modify
the commenttype option:
set commenttype "/* %s */"
Or in your settings.json:
{
"*.c": {
"commenttype": "/* %s */"
}
}
