[Github-comments] [geany/geany] comment and uncomment not portable across geany installations (#2433)

[AgilentGCMS]

For my work, I need to edit the same source files from multiple computers, most of which are Linux and a couple are Mac OSX. Say I'm editing a python file with the following line:
```
x = 3.0
```
In geany on linux, hitting the keyboard shortcut for 'comment' does this
```
#x = 3.0
```
While in geany on OSX, hitting the keyboard shortcut for 'comment' does this
```
# x = 3.0
```
i.e., it inserts an extra space after the `#` character. I don't really mind the difference, since they both work, except that _if I comment a bunch of lines in linux, I can't uncomment them on osx by choosing uncomment_. This gets super annoying, since I then have to manually uncomment entire code blocks, line by line.

So my question is, how can I make the commenting and uncommenting consistent in geany across the two OSes? Or perhaps, how can I get geany on osx to uncomment lines commented by geany on linux (and vice versa)?
