comments in a command line file?

comments in a command line file?

  Great idea, thanks. It was a response file that I meant.

  So this is a "response file" for CL compiler.
  Instead, compose the command line or response file in your makefile, like this:
  
  MYOPTS =
  MYOPTS = $(MYOPTS) /YP
  # this is commented out:
  # MYOPTS = $(MYOPTS) /otheropts
  
  $(CL) -c $(MYOPTS) somefile

  Well, I do not have many details. What I mean is this: I am trying to make a number of command files for CL directive (command) with a number of options included. In a month or so I will not need it but at this moment I keep forgetting some details as to what some options mean, for instance /Yp. What I would like to do is to have comments included in the file similar to "rem" statement of batch files where I would explain for myself what some of the options mean. I would also like to make notes on the nature of the project, etc.
  
  thanks.
