 ...........................
 
 The presence of a '#' appearing anywhere on a line indicates the start
 of a comment that extends to the end of that line.
 
    If a '#' appears as the first character of a line then the whole line
 is treated as a comment, but in this case the line can also be a logical
 line number directive (SeeComments) or a preprocessor control
 command (SeePreprocessing).
 
    The ';' character can be used to separate statements on the same
 line.
