this appears to be like a bug.
in emacs-lisp-mode, if you have a comment like this:
;; This is a comment
and your cursor is somewhere on that line. Now, do comment-dwim, it
doesn't uncomment the line. It just moves the cursor to the T
in This .
Same behavior in cperl mode and probably all others.
I think this might be by design, but it seems counter-intuitive.
I am sure you read it but just in case:
comment-dwim is an interactive autoloaded Lisp function in
`newcomment.el'.
It is bound to M-;.
(comment-dwim ARG)
Call the comment command you want (Do What I Mean).
If the region is active and `transient-mark-mode' is on, call
`comment-region' (unless it only consists of comments, in which
case it calls `uncomment-region').
Else, if the current line is empty, call `comment-insert-comment-function'
if it is defined, otherwise insert a comment and indent it.
Else if a prefix ARG is specified, call `comment-kill'.
Else, call `comment-indent'.
You can configure `comment-style' to change the way regions are commented.
For my point of view, this is well defined here and it behaves
just as described.
