[Wish]Adding a comment for multiple files

As in title. I sometimes want to add the same comment for many files. I know there may be problems when files are already commented, but I think that warning with "overwrite/append" options would be enough...

It is already possible to do that if I understood correctly your suggestion

Thanks qbo, I didn't know about it.
But there's probably no way to append the comment...
And that's the thing I need.

In the linked thread I described how to perform this task. Here is a detailed example. The following files are selected:
File1 (comment: "green")
File2 (comment: "red")
File3 (comment: "blue")
Now the user wants to append the comment " Important!" to all these files.
1. Open the "Change attributes dialog".
2. Clkick on the "more attributes" button
3. Set plugin to tc and property to "Comment".
4. In the same line press the + button and choose [tc.Comment] from the menu. This field appears in the value field.
5. Now append " Important!" to the value. The value should now be
6. Press OK to start.
The file comments are now:
File1 (comment: "green Important!")
File2 (comment: "red Important!")
File3 (comment: "blue Important!")

I forgot there's [tc.Comment]
Thank you, Lefteous.

Yes, I know it can do everything
But the built-in solutin is enough for me..and it has 2 advantages:
It's smaller.
It's not AHK

Is it possible to add a new line this way?
EDIT: Does this format support multiline comments?
When I write a comment with ctrl+z editor, comments are saved with spaces instead of newlines.

No, TC trims all newlines.

Files.bbs does, descript.ion does not.
