cursive

I feel like in the last month or so comment behaviour has changed from 'if I'm on a ; comment line and press <enter> I go to a new uncommented line' to '...I go to a new commented line'.

Is that expected? I don't think I like it, but maybe I just need to get used to it.

It is a change that happened, yes, and opinions seem divided on it. I actually think I will roll it back, if only because it's inconsistent with other languages on IntelliJ. It wasn't a change I actually made consciously, I fixed a bug in the comment handling and this fell out of that.

Yeah, I tried it in Java and it didn't seem the same (at least for single line comments) which is what made me think it was a cursive thing.

Thanks.

@cfleming do you remember which version this was introduced in? this is driving me crazy right now and I just want it gone 😛

@thheller I've fixed this in https://github.com/cursive-ide/cursive/issues/3035, I'll get a release out now since this is annoying a lot of people.

@thheller That's out now

thheller 2025-05-27T10:37:47.298639Z

hmm I installed 2025.2-eap1-251 but same behavior still

thheller 2025-05-27T10:38:18.250039Z

when I try 2025.2-eap2-252 manually it complains about not being on the correct intellij version. I'm on 2025.1.1.1

cfleming 2025-05-27T10:42:37.716979Z

Let me check that

thheller 2025-05-27T10:44:24.809379Z

actually no it works. I installed manually from the downloaded version. maybe the update didn't make it into the registry yet or something. that still gives me the eap1 thing

cfleming 2025-05-27T10:45:49.471309Z

Phew, the change is definitely in that branch, I thought there might have been some merge conflict weirdness or something.

thheller 2025-05-27T10:45:58.350799Z

thanks so much, this was really driving me crazy. 😛

cfleming 2025-05-27T10:46:37.812139Z

No worries. It's weird though, that change has been in EAP versions for like 5 months, but it seems like it suddenly started annoying people.

cfleming 2025-05-27T10:47:18.591109Z

Anyway, glad that sanity has returned 🙂

thheller 2025-05-27T10:47:29.997239Z

I only update once every few years or so because of stuff like this. bad timing I guess 🙂

cfleming 2025-05-27T10:47:43.640999Z

Haha, yes
