COMMENT Command

The COMMENT command is used to insert explanatory material, which is ignored by

Spoolcom, into a Spoolcom command file. It is often used in command files

(sometimes called OBEY files) to explain the purpose of the file and what the

commands in it do. Command files are often used as an easy-to-execute and uniform

procedure for starting the spooler.

any-text

is text that is ignored by Spoolcom. any-text is terminated by a carriage return

or a semicolon (;).

Consideration



At least one blank space must separate the keyword COMMENT from the text.

Examples

See the command files listed in the Guardian User’s Guide. These files allow you to

coldstart and warmstart the spooler.
