Keyboard shortcut to comment lines in Sublime Text 3

keyboard shortcutssublimetext3

In Sublime Text 2 it was possible to comment out a line or a block of lines with Ctrl+/ and Ctrl+Shift+/. According to the menu Edit > Comment these shortcuts should be valid, but in Sublime Text 3 (build 3047) they no longer seem to work. Does anybody know the right default keyboard shortcuts for Linux and MacOS? Or is it a bug?

It seems a bug: http://www.sublimetext.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=11157&start=0

As a workaround, go to Preferences->Key Bindings - User and add these keybindings (if you're using Linux):

{ "keys": ["ctrl+7"], "command": "toggle_comment", "args": { "block": false } },
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+7"], "command": "toggle_comment", "args": { "block": true } }

Update: This also works on Windows 8 (see @Sosi's comment)
