| <a name="index-M680x0-line-comment-character-1451"></a><a name="index-line-comment-character_002c-M680x0-1452"></a><a name="index-comments_002c-M680x0-1453"></a>Line comments are introduced by the ‘<samp><span class="samp">|</span></samp>’ character appearing |
| anywhere on a line, unless the <samp><span class="option">--bitwise-or</span></samp> command-line option |
| has been specified. |
| |
| <p>An asterisk (‘<samp><span class="samp">*</span></samp>’) as the first character on a line marks the |
| start of a line comment as well. |
| |
| <p><a name="index-M680x0-immediate-character-1454"></a><a name="index-immediate-character_002c-M680x0-1455"></a> |
| A hash character (‘<samp><span class="samp">#</span></samp>’) as the first character on a line also |
| marks the start of a line comment, but in this case it could also be a |
| logical line number directive (see <a href="Comments.html#Comments">Comments</a>) or a preprocessor |
| control command (see <a href="Preprocessing.html#Preprocessing">Preprocessing</a>). If the hash character |
| appears elsewhere on a line it is used to introduce an immediate |
| value. (This is for compatibility with Sun's assembler). |
| |
| <p><a name="index-M680x0-line-separator-1456"></a><a name="index-line-separator_002c-M680x0-1457"></a> |
| Multiple statements on the same line can appear if they are separated |
| by the ‘<samp><span class="samp">;</span></samp>’ character. |
