Lem-ncurses: How do I define a comment character?

[aykaramba]

I am replacing emacs-nox on my machines with lem-ncurses and it is pretty nice.

QUESTION: How do I define the character used for commenting out lines in scripts?

Lem recognizes various scripts and config files quite well but there are still a lot of situations where it doesn't know what to do when you want to M-x comment-region. How do we setup comment rules when M-x comment-region results in nothing being commented out?

Thanks.

Hello, I think it would help to know in which programming modes you miss the comments.

Honestly, most of the time when I am administering a Linux server over ssh, Lem (ncurses) defaults to Fundamental mode. M-; results in an error message with "Key not set" and comment region doesn't comment anything out.

So perhaps just fundamental mode?
