Good point, Jay,
And the nice thing is you don't really need the closing ]]
Unless it's changed, everything after the opening [[ will be skipped if there
is no closing ]]

At one time, the manual said to use ! to mark what was

mark things you /didn't/ want to print, but the option to
print only "tagged" notes was left, so the ! kept on working.
So far as I can tell by a little experimentation since
Sherry's post, I can put a "[[" at the beginning of a 'graph
and a "]]" at the end and it works. It also appears to work
if I put it at the beginning of a formatted section
[[

]]
which lets me mark huge sections of notes at once. That'll
probably turn out to not-work next time I try it, and if it
does not-work, I guess I'm back to GED. :(
