User Defined Language - Line Comment Position Bug
A plugin to improve Notepad++
Brought to you by:

User Defined Language dialog box. Go to the 'Commment & Number' tab. In the 'Line Comment Position' section, choose 'Force at beginning of line'. This should cause a comment to begin whenever you type the desired comment character as the first character on a line. It doesn't work. Open a new document and type the comment character as the first character on your line. Continue typing....nothing happens. The line doesn't change color or anything. This is a bug. Notepad++ is not recognizing that your line is a comment like it should. Please fix this. This issue is preventing my group from using Notepad++ as an editor for OmniScript language. Thanks
I see this as well in the 1/10/2015 build. I'm also seeing that the 'Toggle Single Line Comment' is not respecting this setting.
Still experiencing this in version 6.9.2. If you create a new file with the comment as the first character it doesn't respect it. If you start the new file with a new line and then start the next one with a comment, it works fine.
There's also weirdness regarding using ctrl+q to block quote/unquote that messes with the formatting of comments.
