That would mean that the doc needs to be fixed, since it says at https://www.gnu.org/software/pspp/manual/html_node/COMMENT.html: COMMENT can extend over any number of lines. Don’t forget to terminate it with a dot or a blank line. I don't fully understand what `segmenter_parse_comment_1__` does in `src/language/lexer/segment.c` but it seems to suggest that the doc is right, yet the `t-test.sps` file strongly suggests that the reality is different. Could someone enlighten me as to the actual syntax of comments for .sps files (maybe it's not defined in `src/language/lexer/segment.c` but in some other file)? Stefan
