Toggling SML comments in sublime 2

I installed syntax highlighting for SML in Sublime Text 2, however toggling comments doesn't work.

Does Anyone know how to implement this functionality..?

Use case:

-> some text

-> (Cmd+/)

-> (* some text *)

I copied the Comments.tmPreferences file from the Sass package I use and edited it. Copy the xml and save it in the same place you installed the sml package. The line <string>source.sml</string> tells Sublime when to use this comment style, for files that have sml syntax. Edit as needed. The line TM_COMMENT_START tells Sublime to put (* at the start of the comment and similar for TM_COMMENT_END. I commented out the uuid lines because I don't know what to put there and it seems to work without it. I did not test it on sml files, but worked on other syntaxes. I would recommend talking to the package developer to see if they would add a solution to their code.
