Keyboard shortcut to comment lines in Sublime Text

Question

In Sublime Text 2, how do I enclose a selection in a comment?
Is there a keyboard shortcut for this action?

Answer 1

In keyboard (Spanish), SO: Win7.

Go into Preferences->Key Bindings - Default, replace..."ctrl+/"]... by "ctrl+7"...

And don't use the numpad, it doesn't work. Just use the numbers above the letters

Answer 2

First Open The Sublime Text 2.

And top menu bar on select the Preferences.

And than select the Key Bindings -User.

And than put this code,

[
    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+c"], "command": "toggle_comment", "args": { "block": false } },

    { "keys": ["ctrl+shift+c"], "command": "toggle_comment", "args": { "block": true } }
]

I use Ctrl+Shift+C, You also different short cut key use.

Answer 3

In my keyboard (Swedish) it´s the key to the right of "ä": "*".

ctrl+*

Answer 4

In a Brazilian Portuguese ABNT2 keyboard I have a similar issue to the one reported by JoshDM. In the file sublime-keymap I have:

{ "keys": ["ctrl+/"], "command": "toggle_comment", "args": { "block": false } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+/"], "command": "toggle_comment", "args": { "block": true } },

But I have to use ctrl+; and ctrl+shift+;. On my keyboard, ; is on the left of /.

It seems like a bug.

Answer 5

you need to replace "/" with "7", it works on non english keyboard layout.

Answer 6

On my laptop with spanish keyboard, the problem seems to be the "/" on the key binding, I changed it to ctrl+shift+c and now it works.

{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+c"], "command": "toggle_comment", "args": { "block": true } },
