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

By default on Linux/Windows for an English keyboard the shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+/ to toggle a block comment, and Ctrl+/ to toggle a line comment.

If you go into Preferences->Key Bindings - Default, you can find all the shortcuts, below are the lines for commenting.

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

Answer 2

I'd like to add, that on my mac by default block comment toggle shortcut is cmd+alt+/

Answer 3

For German keyboards use ctrl+shift+# to toggle a block comment and ctrl+# to toggle a line comment.

The shortcut in Preferences->Key Bindings - Default is set to Ctrl+Shift+/ and Ctrl+/, but to actually use the functions, press the keys stated above.
