Tom -
I tried that immediately after reading your message and if one
attempts to convert an ASCII application file to a binary procedure file
where the app file has comments as the first line(s) in RBWin 6.5++ one gets:
-ERROR- Incomplete application file. (2899)
however, if you lead off with
$COMMAND
segment_name
*( comments )
there is no problem. Comments that follow later in the ASCII application
file have no effect. Also ASCII command files can be converted to binary
command files when they have comments in the first line(s).
