+@cindex TIC54X line comment character
+The presence of a @samp{;} appearing anywhere on a line indicates the
+start of a comment that extends to the end of that line.
+
+If a @samp{#} appears as the first character of a line then the whole
+line is treated as a comment, but in this case the line can also be a
+logical line number directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a preprocessor
+control command (@pxref{Preprocessing}).
+
+The presence of an asterisk (@samp{*}) at the start of a line also
+indicates a comment that extends to the end of that line.
