Comments
========

  You can write comments in a Texinfo file that will not appear in
either the Info file or the printed manual by using the `@comment'
command (which may be abbreviated to `@c').  Such comments are for the
person who revises the Texinfo file.  All the text on a line that
follows either `@comment' or `@c' is a comment; the rest of the line
does not appear in either the Info file or the printed manual. (Often,
you can write the `@comment' or `@c' in the middle of a line, and only
the text that follows after the `@comment' or `@c' command does not
appear; but some commands, such as `@settitle' and `@setfilename', work
on a whole line.  You cannot use `@comment' or `@c' in a line beginning
with such a command.)

  You can write long stretches of text that will not appear in either
the Info file or the printed manual by using the `@ignore' and `@end
ignore' commands.  Write each of these commands on a line of its own,
starting each command at the beginning of the line.  Text between these
two commands does not appear in the processed output.  You can use
`@ignore' and `@end ignore' for writing comments.
