+====== Xcode Comment Selection ======
+I still can't find any built in function to comment/uncomment using // at the beginning of lines.  However, there is a text macro that can be bound to a key combination as follows:
+  * open Xcode preferences
+  * go to Key Bindings
+  * Duplicate a Key Binding Set if you don't already have a custom set
+  * expand the Action: Edit -> Insert Text Macro -> C -> Comment Selection
+  * double click in the Key column
+  * set the key combination of your choice (I suggest Command-/)
+  * click Apply/OK
+  * now when you select text, press Command-/ to comment the selection using /* and */
+  * there is no automated way to uncomment a selection that I know of
