Yes, this works fine. What I ended up doing, however, was defining
my own "uncomment-region" function as suggested by the
XEmacs tutorial at
http://www.xemacs.org/Links/tutorials_2.html#SEC14, e.g.
(defun uncomment-region (beg end)
"Uncomment a region of text"
(interactive "r")
(comment-region beg end -1));<--Achtung!
and bound to a key combo I like via
(global-set-key "\C-c;" 'comment-region)
(global-set-key "\C-c:" 'uncomment-region)
Problem solved. Moral? When in doubt, read the instructions I
guess...mea culpa.
Thanks for your help
