Comment Entries

Enter comment lines anywhere in the file-description file, observing the following restrictions:
  • The last element of the field-descriptor entry specification is a comment. This is an optional entry for your information only, and must be separated from the size entry by a space. PCFL entries created by the data transfer function (RTOPC) do not contain a comment field.
  • Precede the comment with an asterisk (*) as the first nonspace character in the line.
  • Do not exceed 80 characters in length.
  • Do not make the comment the first record in the file-description file.
