NAME
       comment - display or change file comments

SYNOPSIS
       comment [options] fileSpec [comment]

       comment -d [--delete] fileSpec...

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents Comment.Cmd.  Comment.Cmd allows you
       to display or change file comments.  You can also view and edit
       file comments using the WPS (open the settings notebook for the
       file, and turn to the third page of the File tab).

       If `comment' is specified, it is assigned to the files matching
       fileSpec.  Existing comments are not replaced unless the -f
       (--force) option is given.  You should NOT put quotation marks
       around the comment, unless you want them to be part of it.

       If `comment' is not specified, comments are displayed for all
       files matching fileSpec.

       The `-s' (--subject) option tells Comment.Cmd to use the
       subject field instead of the comments field.  In the settings
       notebook, the subject field is on the first page of the File
       tab.

   OPTIONS
       -a, --all-files
              List all files, including those without comments

       -d, --delete
              Delete comments from all files matching fileSpec.
              Multiple fileSpec's can be given with this option.

       -f, --force
              Replace existing comments

       -q, --quiet
              Do not display status messages

       -s, --subject
              Manipulate the subject field instead of the comments

       -?, --help
              Print a usage message on standard output and exit

       --license
              Print license information on standard output and exit

       --version
              Print version information on standard output and exit

BUGS
       Can not display comments that span multiple lines (displays
       `<Multi-line comment>' instead).
