Re: Fill for // style comments in C

[Herbert Euler]

And in c-mode, pressing M-q in between comments like this:

// A real long comment that will cause the fill command in Emacs C mode 
making mistakes.

will get

// A real long comment that will cause the fill command in Emacs C
mode making mistakes.

But for /* */ style comment, it will be

/* A real long comment that will cause the fill command in Emacs C
  mode making mistakes. */

And in c++-mode,

// A real long comment that will cause the fill command in Emacs C mode 
making mistakes.

will be changed to

// A real long comment that will cause the fill command in Emacs C
// mode making mistakes.

when pressing M-q.
