Wpkg will exit on the following line

<!-- Foo = Explanation of foo -->

I thought that anything between <!-- and --> was supposed to be a comment, or is this a syntax quirk of XML

Well, it's not really the code in wpkg.js that does the real XML parsing.


But a quick search in google for "xml syntax comment" reveals that you're not allowed to use "--":

Syntax Rule 6: Comments

XML like many other languages allows comments. Comments are typically discarded by the parser ? thus they will not appear in the output of, say a browser.

The syntax of a comment is shown by the example below:

<!-- This is a Comment -->

The special element starting with the symbols <!-- and ending with the symbols --> is the comment and the text within forms the content of the comment. Note that comments cannot be nested since the use of the character string "--" is completely prohibited within a comment.
