3.7 Comments

A FunnelWeb comment commences with the `@!` sequence and continues up to, but not including, the end of line marker at the end of the line that the comment sequence is on. Comments can be placed on any line except `@i` include, `@p` pragma, and `@t` typesetter directive lines.

The text following the FunnelWeb comment sequence `@!` will not appear in the product files or the documentation file. It is only for the eyes of those who bother to look at the original `.fw` input file. Typically FunnelWeb comments are used to describe the way in which particular FunnelWeb constructs are being used. Example:

    @! This macro is really revolting.
    @! Please forgive me. I had to do it!
    @$@<Revolt Me@>==@{@-
    @#X@(@#Y@(@#Z@,@"@#Z@"@)=
    6@,Teapot@,@"@#Q@(45@)@"@,Tiger@)@}
