  <title>Code comment</title>

  <p>Code comments are portions of text that make it easier for people to
  understand a program's code, but they don't affect how a program works.
  Comments are separated from other parts of a program by special
  characters.</p>
  
  <p>The <app>code comment</app> plugin makes it easier to quickly create or
  remove code comments. To enable the code comment plugin, select
  <guiseq><gui style="menu">gedit</gui><gui style="menuitem">Preferences</gui>
  <gui>Plugins</gui><gui>Code comment</gui></guiseq>.</p>
  
  <steps>
    <title>To create or remove a comment:</title>
    <item>
      <p>Highlight the portion of text where you want to add or remove a
      comment.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>To add a comment, click <guiseq><gui style="menu">gedit</gui>
      <gui>Comment Code</gui></guiseq>, or press <keyseq><key>Ctrl</key>
      <key>M</key></keyseq>.</p>
    </item>
    <item>
      <p>To remove a comment, click <guiseq><gui style="menu">gedit</gui>
      <gui>Uncomment Code</gui></guiseq>, or press <keyseq><key>Shift</key>
      <key>Ctrl</key><key>M</key></keyseq>.</p>
    </item>
  </steps>
  
  <note style="tip">
    <p><app>gedit</app> will automatically use the correct style of comment
    based on the language or syntax of the file. If <app>gedit</app> doesn't
    identify your language or syntax, you can select it from the language list
    in the bottom <gui>Status bar</gui>.</p>
