(I have TComment installed, and I'm on NeoVim 0.4.0.)



Given this code, for example:



let mem key st =
let is_matching_key = function
| Positional _ -> false
| Flag f -> f.name == key
in
(* FIXME: This is slow, but Array.exists isn't available until OCaml 4.03, and I am lazy. *)
List.exists is_matching_key (Array.to_list st.args)


When I select the above code, and hit gcc, I get:



(* let mem key st = *)
(* let is_matching_key = function *)
(* | Positional _ -> false *)
(* | Flag f -> f.name == key *)
(* in *)
(* (* FIXME: This is slow, but Array.exists isn't available until OCaml 4.03, and I am lazy. *) *)
(* List.exists is_matching_key (Array.to_list st.args) *)
(* *)


Instead, I'd like to get something like,



(* let mem key st =
let is_matching_key = function
| Positional _ -> false
| Flag f -> f.name == key
in
(* FIXME: This is slow, but Array.exists isn't available until OCaml 4.03, and I am lazy. *)
List.exists is_matching_key (Array.to_list st.args) *)


… where there are only comment-delimiters at the beginning and end of the entire text.



How do I achieve this?





Additionally — I'd like to get Vim to continue to maintain this indent-style when hitting Return inside docblocks. If is the insertion-point in the following text …



(** This is a documentation-block for this function.⁁


… I currently get this after hitting Return



(** This is a documentation-block for this function.
* ⁁


(Note the additional asterisk it's adding on each line; also note that the indentation is ‘one off’, not aligning with the T in the above line.) I'd like to get this:



(** This is a documentation-block for this function.



I've tried to pore thru the TComment documentation, but I'm having no luck improving this behaviour.
