Multiline comments: * should be auto-inserted on enter

[ecbrodie]

When I am writing a multiline comment in C/C++ code (ie, /* ... */) and I press enter while typing in the middle of the comment, then a * character should be automatically inserted at the beginning of the new line, indented to match the * character of the comment's opening line. This is the default behaviour in almost every other IDE that I've had experience working with. However, in VS Code, I need to add in this new character at the start of the line new. It is a little tedious to need to do this all the time.

Please fix. Thank you.

helps a bit, but has some quirks which I haven't yet tried to debug. For /** it works well, for /* it seems to only work if you already have three lines in place.

Built-in support would be great though.

Our implementation will be similar. It won't turn on automatically for /*, but if you add the * on the next line, we will continue it for subsequent lines. /** will work as you expect.
