-Since finding comment lines is done heuristically using syntax highlighting
-feature, this only works when syntax highlighting is enabled.
+You can override `g:easy_align_ignores` to change the rule.
 
-If you do not want comment lines to be ignored, you can unset
-`g:easy_align_ignore_comment` as follows.

-    let g:easy_align_ignore_comment = 0
+    let g:easy_align_ignores = []
