I also use TextPad - 4.7.3. I have never thought to comment a block of code, but this thread prompted me to see if it is possible. As far as I can see, you can do it like this - Menu > Configure > Block Select Mode - Ctrl+Q,B Select a block, one column wide, using mouse or keyboard. Menu > Edit > Fill Block (brings up dialog box) Fill character: # Format: Left align Fill mode: Replace OK Done. To uncomment, as above but set Fill character to a space. It feels a bit fiddly, but I reckon if you use it a few times it will become quite smooth. Frank Millman -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
