Is there a variable or register holding the/a comment delimiter
for the current filetype ? http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Comment_Lin
es_according_to_a_given_filetype suggests there isn't but things
might have changed since then...

Thanks in advance.

It depends on what you're trying to do. The author of that wiki page
wanted to be able to comment-out blocks of code in a unified way
without having to know the comment character(s) for the language in
use.  Vim still does not have a built-in solution to that problem.

Vim does know how to recognize the comment characters and styles of
different languages, though, by means of the 'comments' option,
which is often set by a filetype plugin.  See

    :help 'comments'

HTH,
Gary

What about 'commentstring'?

Cheers,

That would do it.  Don't know how I missed that.  Thanks.
