How to comment a Fluent journal file

January 12, 2006, 04:18

Hi

If you are scripting a journal file for Fluent, what do you have to put at the start of line in order to add a comment?

I guess I am looking for the equivalent of /* or C

when programming in C or Fortran

if someone could tell me that would be great.

thanks

I will keep on checking/looking for some information

cheers

As an example:

/solve/initialize/hyb-initialization ;Hybrid Initialization
it 10000 ;Solve for 10000 iterations
/file/write-case "casefile.cas" ;Save Case File

Text in Bold is treated as a comment.
