<ul>
<li>
<p>To terminate a block comment, you need 3 keystrokes:</p>
<ol>
<li>Backpace to remove the space after <code>*</code></li>
<li><code>/</code> for terminator</li>
<li>Enter to go to the next line</li>
</ol>
</li>
<li>
<p>To terminate a single-line comment (including Doxygen cases), you just need to select the added continuation, and then anything you type will replace it. Selection only takes 2 keystrokes if smart Home is active (Shift + Home) or 3 if not (Ctrl + Shift + Left).</p>

</ul>
<p>Anyway, I understand that such things should be in plugin, so I close the issue.</p>
