Sometime you want to comment multiple line of c# code.
Visual studio uses // for each line of code if you use the comment/uncomment button.
I wanted to use the multiline comments /* */.
With the following snippet you can do this by using "Surround with"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

Following this post, I put this snippet under My Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Code Snippets\Visual C#\My Code Snippets.
Didn't find a way to strip the comments tags, anyway
that's it
