In netbeans the toggle comments shortcut is control + /, which works well for php and ruby but for python it simply does nothing, can someone help?
Which version of NetBeans are you using? 
I just tried it in NetBeans 6.9 and it works perfectly in Python source 
(I presume you have Python plugin installed )
Version: 0.105 Source: NetBeans Beta
Plugin Description
Python support: editing, refactoring, hints, etc.
