Re: [ELPA] New package: arm-mode

I have fixed the regexp.

In Arm "@" is equivilent to ";" in lisp, and "/* */" is equivilent to ";;" in 
lisp.
I don't understand how comment-dwim knows to put ";;" when on an empty line and 
only ";" for in-line comments but I'm looking for a similar functionality. This 
how I got it to work for me.
