Comment boxes

This tip comes from colleague of mine. Ben has a mailing group at work where he sends weekly Emacs tips. They’re always short and useful, but today’s tip was quite the gem for me. Emacs has a comment-box command.

I’m sure half the readers know about this already, but I didn’t, so I thought I’d share with the second half. He also offers an improved version of the command, originally by Snader, which extends the box up to the fill-column.
