            Bug ID: 357879
           Summary: [feature-request] Automatic continuation of multiline
                    comments
           Product: kate
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: indentation
          Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: jan.pavli...@centrum.cz

I recently switchet to Kate from Geany and i really miss this feature. I belive
that it can be a valid new feature that should be considered in future
releases, since many people who use Kate for programming can benefit from it.

It works very simple, when you start a multiline (or documentation) comment
(usually starting with /* or /**), most of the time you want the comment to
continue on following lines like this:

    /**
     * @return void
     */

Automatic handlig of the continuation (when I hit enter after the first line,
Kate automaticaly indents, writes the "*" on second line and ideally a space
after) would be exceptionaly useful, especially for languages like PHP (no
native annotations support, so there is a heavy use of doc comments), but I
believe others could benefit from this either. Ofcourse, this would be best as
an optional feature, enabled/disabled in settings.

Reproducible: Always
