sfdcviraj

Hello Friends,
I have this below code.I can comment the code by standard way ('  ') which I can do with few clicks.
Is there a way using the keyboard shortcut to do so? MS Visual Studio has it. May be the Eclipse too, although not sure.
Please help, thanks!

Hi sfdcviraj,
It's better to use sublime editor for more flexibility and write code in offline also without getting error.

Use Sublime + mavenmate or simply copy to sublime editor then copy it back to console.
In Sublime, the shortkey is Ctrl + /

Hi sfdcviraj,
we are able to create custom Shortcut as per your daily requirement.there are some explanation about this I hope it is useful for You
1)Creating a Custom Shortcut – The Logout of salesforce.com Hotkey
One of the simplest keyboard shortcuts is logging out of Salesforce. Let's set it up.
a)Defining the Keyboard Shortcut
a)First, go to the Keyboard Shortcuts setup page for your Console and via Setup-> Create-> Apps-> Your Console -> 'Customize keyboard shortcuts'-> Edit.
b)Now add a new shortcut. 'Click Add Keyboard Shortcut'
c)Fill out the shortcut details. Note that the name of the shortcut event is namespaced with 'custom shortcut'. This is good practice and avoids possible conflicts with existing or future events in the Console.
d)Now we save and move on to the next step.
Since we want the shortcut to be available at all times, the listener must also be available at all times in the Console.
Some Standard Shortcut Key is also in console check it on a link:
https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=console2_keyboard_shortcut_ref.htm&type=5
If you found this answer helpful then please mark it as best answer so it can help others.
Thanks
Akshay

You can access a variety of commands and windows in Visual Studio by choosing the appropriate keyboard shortcut. This page lists the default command shortcuts for the General profile, which you might have chosen when you installed Visual Studio. No matter which profile you chose, you can identify the shortcut for a command by opening the Options dialog box, expanding the Environment node, and then choosing Keyboard. You can also customize your shortcuts by assigning a different shortcut to any given command.

For a list of common keyboard shortcuts and other productivity information, see:
