    Hi there,

    just using Dev-C++ for a while, nice IDE.

    I'm wondering if the shortcut 'Ctrl + M' is broken for uncommenting commented lines? It only produces new lines when hit, but does not uncomment any thing...

    Thanks
    Michael

      Ctrl-M is conventional ASCII control sequence for Newline - it looks like the default operation of the edit control or perhaps Windows OS itself is consuming the sequence before Dev-C++ gets it.

      So I'd say it was a bug.

      The workaround is obviously to use the menu, but if you need a keyboard method, the menu can be activated by Alt+E+N, either all together or in sequence, which is probably only slightly less convenient than Ctrl-M.

        I found simple keyboard shortcut. Try to hit: Ctrl + Alt + ',' (comma) and you get lines uncommented.
