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.
