Remember when we used PHP? Multiline commenting was simple…a little /* here and some */ there and viola! That’s one of those little things that has irked me with Rails, the inability to comment out multiple lines.
Supposedly you can use a =begin and =end tag, but that’s been reserved for ruby documentation. Though not a solution, a little trick has recently been brought to my attention..it seems that Textmate users can comment out multiple lines of code by selecting the block they want to comment out, then pressing the key combination “command/Apple + /”
