// (double-slash)

// (remark)

Purpose:

Precedes comments or remarks in script files (alternative to REM statement)

Entry:

// line of text

// simply acts like a "shorthand" version of the REM statement. The following statements are equivalent:

// select Thundergun REM select Thundergun

Note:

REM and // are not needed under the [SETUP] section of a script file. Text under the [SETUP] section is treated like a "block" comment that can span multiple lines. Comments written with REM and //, however, can extend only to the next carriage return (the character that ends a line of text).
