Hello list,

I am using BibTeX under ConTeXt to typeset a publication. I noticed
while building the publication ConTeXt raises the following non-fatal
warning:

    ...
    This is BibTeX, Version 0.99d (TeX Live 2023/Debian)
    The top-level auxiliary file: Secret_Sauce.aux
    The style file: cont-au.bst
    Database file #1: ./References.bib
    I was expecting a `{' or a `('---line 2 of file ./References.bib
     :
     : % See the file Copying for details on copying conditions.
    (Error may have been on previous line)
    I'm skipping whatever remains of this entry
    (There was 1 error message)
    publications    > loading formatting style from 'bibl-apa'

    close source    > level 4, order 13, name
    '/usr/share/texmf/tex/context/bib/mkii/bibl-apa.tex'
    ...

All that's present on the first few lines of the References.bib BibTeX
database are comments that begin with the '%' character.

Is there a different character that should be used for BibTeX databases
when used with ConTeXt?

According to the documentation, everything outside of entries is considered a comment. Inside of entries, there can’t be comments.
