Yeah. The specific code is:
if(key.len>1 && *key.text == '*' && !STRchr((*cmd),' '))
Its the STRchr that mucks things up, basically saying "and no spaces in the command string".

A line that begins with a "*" is a comment - if it also has a space in it somwhere after the "*"..
A line that begins with a "*" and has no spaces after the "*" is treated like a globally catalogued program.
Note, just to make it complicateder, either comment or catlogued programs can have _leading_ spaces, i.e., spaces before the "*", which is the first non-space character. Try typing " *TEST" and " *TEST HELLO" to see what I mean, George.
The other side of your problem is if you have, say, 10 lines of a paragraph that you want to comment out do c//* /10 with a space. not c//*/10 Cuz if you have a one-word line, it will suddenly be interpretted as a globally catalogued program.
(Got any documentation you want me to write? Didn't think so.)
