Sorry formatting issue. `--[[` and `]]` work for me but yours would as well because the `--` at the end would be inside of the brackets.
Not sure saying "hotkey" is "meaningless", aren't they all linked to only ONE commenting action on/off? Anyways, I use the default hotkey which toggles commenting on/off. Toggle Line Commentation = Ctrl+E I found the `filetypes.lua` file which shows ``` # single comments, like # in this file #comment_single=-- # multiline comments #comment_open=--[[ #comment_close=--]] ``` So it is set for single / multiple lines but I do not know how the multiline comment is activated? If cursor is in the line and I hit Ctrl+E it add `--` to the beginning and if I select multiple lines and apply Ctrl+E it just adds `--` to the beginning of each line. Are you were saying that if a "filetypes" file does contain a "#comment_single=" value, then this then overrides the "multiline" value? Does appear to be true because I changed the following line (removed # and --) #comment_single=-- to comment_single= and then it only uses the --[[ and --]] commenting. Does anyone know if it is possible to use both?
