Under Edit.Source_Code there is a Toggle_Comment option, but the corresponding keyboard shortcut entry is empty in my installation (PyScripter 4.1.1.0). Is this a feature which is not yet available? I can not believe there is no keystroke to toggle comments on and off.

Ok, so I installed version 4.1.1.0 in another PC, and that entry in the menu is not empty (CTRL- ' ), and it also works toggling from the keyboard. Now the mystery is, how to reconfigure it (I confess I had tried to reassign it), but the option "Toggle Comment" is not present in the shortcut editor. There is an option "Comment Block", which I have added to the enabled keystrokes, but it has no effect. So my question now is, how to reassign it. There is this possibility to export the assignments as an INI file, but with cryptic key codes.

Mistery solved, the "Toggle Comment" keystroke setting can be edited not under the editor shortcuts,

but in Tools.Options.IDE_Shortcuts.Categories.Source_Code.
