 NAME
     REM -- Attaches a note to the source code
 
 ABBREVIATION
     None

 SYNOPSIS
     REM [<message>]

 FUNCTION
     The REMark is just a note to whoever is reading a LIST of the program. 
     It may explain a section of the program, give information about the 
     author, etc. REM statements in no way effect the operation of the 
     program, except to add to its length (and therefore slow it down). The 
     word REM may be followed by any text, although use of graphic characters
     gives strange results.
 
 INPUTS
     <message> - any text
 
 RESULT
     Attach a note to the source code so it can be read from the program 
     listing.
