Comments

Using comments in your Vocola command files can help you or somebody else understand the sometimes-cryptic keystroke sequences.

Comments in Vocola are specified by the "#" character. Anything on a line following a "#" character is ignored by the command parser. Here is an example:

 # Extract a file pathname from a Netscape 4 mail message
 Get File Name = 
    {Ctrl+l} Wait(500)           # Open a "forward" window 
    {Enter_2}                    # Move to message body
    {Ctrl+f}:\{Enter}{Esc}       # Search for ":\"
    {Left_3}{Shift+End}{Ctrl+c}  # Copy entire pathname
    {Alt+F4};                    # Close the window
