In PHP when writing a comment using

/*
*
*
*/

PSPad automatically adds the * after the second line when you press enter but for some reason it puts how ever many spaces it is indented after the * as well

I will use ~ to represent a space


~~~~/*
~~~~~*
~~~~~*~~~~~
~~~~~*~~~~~
~~~~~*/~~~~~

Hope that makes sense.

Yes, this is a correct document block for php comments.

/**
~*~Comment goes here
~*/

i.e. phpdoc.org /docs/latest/glossary.html

Fixed.
There was a problem - PSPad should respect spaces behind the asterisk upt to first non space char. Correct behavior is this one:

~~~~~/*
~~~~~~*~~some text starts here
~~~~~~*~~|

It means you can continue your comment aligned as previous line.

There is no setting to change it.
Current behavior: the first line is without space, but if you will write anything behind the * char, next line will copy all spaces or tabs from the previous line.

I can make little modification - the first line will contains space behind the '*'
