- 2This responds to what the OP wanted to do, apparently. But it is not an answer to the question posed. The OP should consider completely rewriting the question to correspond to this answer (or perhaps post a new question). Someone looking for this answer, and the real question it responds to, will likely not find it by searching, because the question as posed is entirely different.Drew– Drew2015-09-15 14:54:12 +00:00Commented Sep 15, 2015 at 14:54
- 1@Drew I agree, the way OP posted the question, I assumed a general answer with basic informations would help best. I thought more in terms of "How could I help him to approach what he want" instead of "how do I match the question".But for discoverablity reasons OP may consider to rephrase it a bit, any ideas for a better title?clemera– clemera2015-09-15 15:00:33 +00:00Commented Sep 15, 2015 at 15:00
- 1The real question is a good one, as is the answer. It merits being posed clearly, rather than hiding behind the question that was posed in its place.Drew– Drew2015-09-15 15:02:04 +00:00Commented Sep 15, 2015 at 15:02
- @Drew How would you prefer I rewrite the question title or body?Zolomon– Zolomon2015-09-15 15:11:50 +00:00Commented Sep 15, 2015 at 15:11
- It's your question, not mine. This answer starts by saying that "if you just want to have a command to delete the comments...". So if that's what you are looking for then ask for that. If you want to leave this question also (two questions), then @hatschipuh could move this answer to the new question, and you could accept it there as the answer. If you want to just replace this question with the one you meant to ask then that's OK to, AFAIK.Drew– Drew2015-09-15 15:28:43 +00:00Commented Sep 15, 2015 at 15:28

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. org-mode), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
