2.3.2. - Doc Strings



Everything between pairs of triple double quotes "@" is a doc string comment. The comment block can span lines, but not files. Unlike comments that begin with a pound sign #, doc string comments will not be saved with a macro when included as part of the macro definition in the source file. Thus, doc string comments can be interspersed in macro code without putting any extra burden on the input preprocessor as it does macro substitution.
