Re: [AUCTeX] out comment every line

Here is a sample of what happens

(defun mytest ()
  (interactive)
  (let (
        beg
        end
        (T 0.5)
        )
    (sit-for T)
    (re-search-forward "{" nil t)
    (sit-for T)
    (goto-char (match-beginning 0))
    (sit-for T)
    (setq beg (point))
    (sit-for T)
    (forward-sexp)
    (sit-for T)
    (setq end (point))
    (sit-for T)
    (TeX-comment-region beg end)
    (sit-for T)
    (goto-char end)
    )
)

If I just to

(TeX-comment-region beg end)
(goto-char end)

I'm no longer at the end of the region. '% ' was added, so the region is now 
longer.

I'm surely also missing something a lot easier here.

Since Tassilo answered this part already, let's look at the story :

At this point you know where the region ends, don't you ?

So you could use it here.

I know I missed something because this was too obvious, but what did I
miss ?
