| Example text that causes the problem:
| 
| -- Begin function
| function thistime = gettime(...)
| 
| 				# get the time in
| -- End function
| 
| When I want it to just look like
| 
| -- Begin function
| function thistime = gettime(...)
| 
| # get the time in
| -- End function
| 
| It has the same behavior if I use # or % for the comment marker, and it 
| happens upon pressing space (as opposed to other characters).

Designed that way, as I recall. Try ## to enfore beginning-of-line.

Could you try that and report back -- we may be able to close this one
quickly.
