Re: [gedit-list] Commenting code, how to do that...



Hello!
I am using Gedit 2.22.3 with gtksourceview-2.0 in Debian testing.

Yes, R is selected under View->Syntax_Highlight.

No, Commenting is not working.

Although highlighting is alive and colorful. I must manually put '#' in front of a line and, eventually, to
copy&paste. I cannot use <CTRL><ALT>C or Edit->Comment.

Best,
PM

The information about how to comment a block is taken from the
corresponding gtksourceview lang file (R.lang in this case).

As far as I can see R.lang contains:

...
   <property name="line-comment-start">#</property>
...

So it should work.

Which version of gedit and gtksourceview are you using? Can you check
from the View->Syntax Highlighting menu that the R syntax highlighting
mode is actually activated?
