What is shortcut for commenting text in .txt files in Eclipse?

I know that there is shortcut in Eclipse Command+/ (CTRL+/) to comment line or block but not for .txt file. So how to do that instead of commenting each line manually?

As @Bob Kuhar commented you can open the .txt file in Java editor. Right click on the text file, go to Open with > Other. Choose Java Editor in the editor selection dialog box.

Select a single line or block of lines then press

  • Ctrl + / --> All line will be commented in // style comments(Single line comments)

  • Ctrl + Shift + / --> All line will be commented in /* style(Multi line comment)

Note that if you type Jay keyword like class, for, while etc then these will be highlighted in coloured text.
