comment.f
This file defines all the words which allow the various types of comments within a Forth source file. All words herein are compiled as parts of the compiler vocabulary.
This file is a required extension because the commenting of all source files is an absolute requirement. Nuff sed.

( --- )
This immediate word (pronounced "backslash") parses the input stream up to the next end of line and then discards the data. This causes the compiler to ignore the contents of the line after the \ character.
Because this word is an immediate it may be used to comment each line of source inside a colon definition. You should use this word A LOT!
