Instead, use the drop-down menu for "edit" and then select "Format Selectio= n". The selection, of course, is done by putting the cursor on the top line you want selected and then holding down the control key as you move the cursor down. The indentation of comment lines depends on the the indentation of the nearest preceding comment line. If you use the "select" button in the "edit menu", the comment indentation usually goes in the left column of the text. If you select a set of lines that include the newly=20 commented lines, the "format selection" approach will indent the start of the new comment lines to be consistent with the other non-commented lines. Once you get used to this approach, it's quite usable. Of course, it isn't the same as a hot key. I routinely use this on my Windows XP machine. I haven't tried on the Linux box, but I expect it will behave the same way. Bruce B.
