COMMENTS
In a non-interactive shell, or an interactive shell in which the
interactive_comments
option to the
shopt
builtin is enabled (see
.SM
"SHELL BUILTIN COMMANDS"
below), a word beginning with
#
causes that word and all remaining characters on that line to
be ignored. An interactive shell without the
interactive_comments
option enabled does not allow comments. The
interactive_comments
option is on by default in interactive shells.
