+@cindex CR16 line comment character
+The presence of a @samp{#} on a line indicates the start of a comment
+that extends to the end of the current line. If the @samp{#} appears
+as the first character of a line, the whole line is treated as a
+comment, but in this case the line can also be a logical line number
+directive (@pxref{Comments}) or a preprocessor control command
+(@pxref{Preprocessing}).
+
+@cindex line separator, CR16
+@cindex statement separator, CR16
+@cindex CR16 line separator
+The @samp{;} character can be used to separate statements on the same
+line.
