(describe-function 'comment-region) <- place cursor here and hit C-x C-e

,----[ C-h f comment-region RET ]
| (comment-region START END &optional ARG)
| 
| Documentation:
| Comment or uncomment each line in the region.
| With just C-u prefix arg, uncomment each line in region.
| Numeric prefix arg ARG means use ARG comment characters.
| If ARG is negative, delete that many comment characters instead.
| Comments are terminated on each line, even for syntax in which newline does
| not end the comment.  Blank lines do not get comments.
