<P>
A comment is any line that begins with the comment delimiter. The
default comment delimiter is an exclamation mark,
<CODE>!</CODE>. The comment delimiter is controlled by the
<a href="../Characteristics/FileRelated/comment.htm"><CODE>COMMENT</CODE></a> characteristic.
Comment lines are simply ignored, but can be useful for documenting script files. Comments can also
be appended to the end of any line in a script file. Just start the comment
with the comment delimiter. For example:</P>
<pre><font color="blue">
READ FILE.DAT X Y Z ! this is a comment
</font></pre>
<P>
<a href="executecommand.htm"><img src="../shadow_left.gif">
<font size="+1" color="olive">EXECUTE command</font></a><br />
<a href="keyboardinput.htm"><img src="../shadow_right.gif">
<font size="+1" color="olive">Keyboard input</font></a>
</P>
