Comments:

This directive enables sources to contain directives used when compiling with the Micro Focus Compiler, but ignored (as comment lines) by any other compiler.

$SET can appear anywhere on a line, provided it is the first thing on the line. However, if this directive is set, the $SET statement is processed even if the line is a comment line (asterisk in column 7).
