Comments in Hvar Files?

[ark1320]

What is the proper way to add comments to an .Hav file in the FSUIPC7 WASM module Hvar file Persistent area; that is, what symbol(s) designate a comment?

Thanks,

Al

Any line starting with a semicolon (';') or double slash ('//') is ignored,  so you can use these for full line comments.
Hvars themselves cannot contain spaces, so the hvar name is read up to the first space, and anything after that is ignored.  So you can add comments after a space.
Probably a good idea to use your own designator though, e.g. '//' or '--'.
