Comments

Any text preceded by a single quote, ', is treated as a comment and ignored by Templex. Comments are terminated by the end of a line or a closing brace. Comments are not written to any output text.

Comments can be used to annotate templates; for example, documenting lines of instructions or indicating the author of the template. Comments can also be used to "turn off" instructions that aren't needed for a particular run. For large groups of such statements it is better to use templex_off and templex_on than to comment and uncomment the statements.
