[TextMate] Re: Working with selections and macros/commands?

[bongoman]

Me again.

Now I'm trying to create a command to comment out a single line thus:
// commented line

I'm not a shell scripter but am trying this:

set oldLine = $TM_CURRENT_LINE
set newLine = "// $oldLine"
echo -n "$newLine"

But no go. What I want to achieve is to comment out the current line,
not a selected line. So wherever the caret is when I invoke the
command gives me a commented single line.

So whether this script is OK or not I'm a little stuck on what my
input and output should be for such a command.

Any clues appreciated.
