Perhaps I should also have mentioned that it's easy to comment and uncomment a
region of text, using `comment-dwim' (starting with Emacs 21) or
`comment-region' (all versions of Emacs).
`comment-dwim' is bound to `M-;'. I bind `comment-region' to `C-x C-;', and
`C-u' with `comment-region' uncomments: `C-u C-x C-;'.
Commenting a region of text wraps it in a layer of comments. Uncommenting it
just removes that layer of comments, leaving any lines that were commented
previously as they were before you started.
