COMMENT Directive (Program Information Block)

COMMENT lets you enter comments about your program without having to enter semicolons (;) for each line.

Syntax

COMMENT Delimiter Text Delimiter

Remarks

The first non-blank character after COMMENT is the first delimiter. The COMMENT directive causes the assembler to treat all Text between Delimiter and Delimiter as a comment. The text must not contain the delimiter character. This directive is used for multiple-line comments. A COMMENT defined in the body of a macro does not appear unless .LALL is requested.

Example

COMMENT *You can enter as many lines
of text between the delimiters
   .
   .
   .
as you need to describe your program.*
