Personally, I use the convention of "#" to start a code comment, and "# " to start a text comment.
Anyway, I'm curious about what you're doing since I've been doing more Python and // isn't available there. Don't you have a lot of code that's indented and would therefore start with "# " when you comment it out? How do you distinguish that from a textual comment?
I do most of my stuff in Ruby, where I just have the TM_COMMENT_START (in the Ruby “Comments” Preference inside the Bundle Editor) option set to "#" instead of "# ", and use ⌘/ to comment out a line.
This works out great because if I want to comment out a line of code, it's already there, so ⌘/ makes it a “code comment.” If I want to make a text comment, I start by making the comment marker, so the caret is already right where I need to make the space.
Aw, don't tell me you're one of those people that uses tabs to indent. :)
No.
