If you use Emacs, you can mark a region and then type "ESC-x comment-region".
For some strange reason Emacs does not have a function "uncomment-region",
thus I have defined one myself in my ~/.emacs file:

;; Emacs hat zwar comment-region, aber kein uncomment-region
(defun uncomment-region (beg end &optional arg)
   (interactive "*r\np")
   (comment-region beg end (- arg)))

Hope this helps,

Christoph
