I am switching over from UNIPRESS emacs to GNU. I am having a problem with comments. I am in c-mode and want to change my comment column. It is set to 32. The command C-x ; (set-comment-column) does not seem to be working. The comment column stays at 32 no matter what I do. Any GURU's out there with some answers? Thanks, Tom Kincaid

What version of gnu-emacs are you working with? Going into C mode, everything seems to work fine: /* column 48 comment */ /* column zero comment */ etc. ... You do realize that if you use a numeric argument (except minus), you are simply reusing the indentation of the previous comment in your program. Just move to the column you want your comments at, and hit C-x ; (with no arguments) to set the column.
