You can write comments in a Texinfo file that will not appear in
either the Info file or the printed manual by using the
<code>@comment</code> command (which may be abbreviated to <code>@c</code>).
Such comments are for the person who revises the Texinfo file. All the
text on a line that follows either <code>@comment</code> or <code>@c</code> is a
comment; the rest of the line does not appear in either the Info file
or the printed manual.
<p>Often, you can write the <code>@comment</code> or <code>@c</code> in the middle of
a line, and only the text that follows after the <code>@comment</code> or
<code>@c</code> command does not appear; but some commands, such as
<code>@settitle</code> and <code>@setfilename</code>, work on a whole line. You
cannot use <code>@comment</code> or <code>@c</code> in a line beginning with such
a command.
<p><a name="index-Ignored-text-67"></a><a name="index-Unprocessed-text-68"></a><a name="index-ignore-69"></a>You can write long stretches of text that will not appear in either
the Info file or the printed manual by using the <code>@ignore</code> and
<code>@end ignore</code> commands. Write each of these commands on a line
of its own, starting each command at the beginning of the line. Text
between these two commands does not appear in the processed output.
You can use <code>@ignore</code> and <code>@end ignore</code> for writing
comments.
<p>Text enclosed by <code>@ignore</code> or by failing <code>@ifset</code> or
<code>@ifclear</code> conditions is ignored in the sense that it will not
contribute to the formatted output. However, TeX and makeinfo must
still parse the ignored text, in order to understand when to <em>stop</em>
ignoring text from the source file; that means that you may still get
error messages if you have invalid Texinfo commands within ignored text.
