I find I can do Ctrl-/ to have a line commented out. Which is really good, but how
can I have a whole block commented out? I want to select and hit Ctrl-/ but it only
does the cursor line again. Quite tedious to do a lot. #firstworldEWBproblems

It is Delphi, so it is Pascal, so comments use:
{
Comment
Comment2
}

The // is inherited in Delphi from C++ only for a line.

True, and I do use that for some, but I like the // commenting style as it is quite
visible (even in un-colored editors).

Is the "block" selected ?  If so, then I can add this.

Me too, please.  I use this in Delphi and PHPEd.  When I switch to EWB I forget it can't do this.

And that is indeed why I even mentioned it. Yes, the block is selected.
