the wonderful editor XEmacs. =))
(defun comment-region-or-line (arg)
"Comment the selected region or the following line."
(interactive "p")
(if (region-active-p)

(comment-region (line-beginning-position) (line-end-position) arg)))
Thanks, that looks useful. However line-(beginning|end)-position only
exists in XEmacs >= 21.5.7, so they'd have to be replaced with
point-at-bol and point-at-eol for cross version compatibility.
I'm thinking about including this in some of the XEmacs packages, maybe
xemacs-base or edit-utils. Suggestions welcome, about the package, and
the target .el (or should it be put into a new file)...
