Toggle Single Line Comment vs Single Line Comment? Why do we have both?
-
Am I missing something or both Toggle Single Line Comment (Ctrl+Q) and Single Line Comment (Ctrk+K) do the exact same thing with only difference that the latter can uncomment while the former cannot? If so, then what is the point of having Ctrl+Q? And why is it called toggle comment when in fact it only works one way?
Thank you.

Seems to work for me - which npp version, operating system and language do you use?

so Ctrl+Q actually toggles it on and off? Rally!? Well, now at least the name makes sense. It has never been working for me though. Hmm… That is so weird.

I tried it on Linux under Wine with python, c and java script.
Which language do you use?Cheers

I tried it on html\css. I’ve just tied JS and C-languages and it works fine on them. But why is this difference?
-
html has its own place here because it is not only one lexer but multiple.
So I assume that this is were the issue comes from.Cheers

Yes, that might be the logic of it. But this behavior still doesn’t make much sense to me. Besides, all the other popular editors toggle html/css comments the same way they do in the programming languages. It’s clearly inconsistent on npp’s part, imho.
Thank you very much!

to be honest, I don’t do much html and because of that I never checked what the issue here
is, it might be npp or it might scintilla, but yes, it is inconsistent in that case.Cheers
