REMARK

Use REMARK to insert explanatory text into your login script. This text does not display on the screen.

REMARK has the following command formats:

REM[ARK] [text]
* [text]
; [text]

Replace text with the comment you want to include in the login script.

Follow these guidelines for using REMARK:

• To include explanatory text in your login script, begin a line with REMARK, REM, an asterisk (*), or a semicolon (;).

• Any text that follows these symbols is ignored when the LOGIN command executes your login script. Remarks do not appear on the screen.

• Using remarks in your login script can make the script much easier for you or other users to read and understand.

• The REMARK command and its associated text must be the only entry on a line. Placing remarks on the same line as other login script commands can cause errors.

• If a remark is several lines long, begin each line with the remark keyword (REMARK, REM, an asterisk, or a semicolon).

The following are examples of explanatory text that you might use with the REMARK command and its variants:

   * This is Richard's login script
   ; Mapped network drives follow:
   REM The next mapping is a fake root.
   REMARK This login script is for new users.
