What's the most elegant way of commenting / uncommenting blocks of ruby code in Vim?

Question

In VIM, at the moment when I need to comment out a section of Ruby code:

• I navigate to the first column in the row I want to comment out
• I press CTRL-v t

Answer 1

You can also do this:

• Move to the first line to comment out
• press 'ESC' then
• Hit Ctrl + q to enter Visual Block mode
• Move done to the last line to comment out
• Hit I, comment out by pressing #
• Hit ESC

And to uncomment:

• Move to the first # of comment
• Hit Ctrl + q to enter Visual Block mode
• Move done to the last line to comment out
• Hit d to remove the comment characters
