Comments in a makefile start with a #
character and extend to the end of the line. They may appear
anywhere you want them, except in a shell command (though the
shell will treat it as a comment, too). If, for some reason,
you need to use the #
in a variable or on a
dependency line, put a backslash in front of it.
PMake will compress the two into a
single #
.
This is not true if PMake is operating in full-compatibility mode).
