How can I uncomment a line in codelite? I cannot find a keyboard shortcut or menu item for this.

Ctrl-/
Or Ctrl-shift-/ to comment a selection
You can search all keyboard shortcuts from: settings -> keyboard shortcuts

One thing to note that codelite uncomment method is very basic, so it works when '//' is in the beginning of the line and there is no space before it like this
In any other cases it does not work, pressing Ctrl-/ does nothing in the following cases
or
It would be really cool if codelite could detect comment in those cases

CODE: SELECT ALL
.//...printf("Hello world\n");
or
I am not sure what the dots are (space?)
Anyways, works perfectly here.
Also, please mention your codelite version + OS you are using

Oh, yes, dots are spaces. I am using codelite 5.3 on windows 7 64bit but I compiled it back when 5.2 was released. I am now getting latest from git and see what happens.

I just got the latest from git, the result is same, Ctrl-/ does not uncomment line that has one or more spaces before '//' or '//' is followed by one or more spaces.

Ok, I missed read it...
I don't think there is an "un-comment" functionality
Please open a feature request for this

Yes, this makes the line into a comment. But how do I remove that comment? Pressing the same keyboard shortcut results in additional comment symbols added to the beginning of the line.
