    I am putting together a Joy mode for the Jed text editor, in order for

    bracket checking to work I need to rely on # acting as a single line

    comment character.

    Joy seems quite happy with this, though I cannot find any example of

    its use in the disrto.

    Ok to use # ?

     The # character for end-of-line comments is a recent addition.

    Since then I have only written one library:  grmlib.joy  on the main

    Joy page,  and it uses this new feature.

     I'll try :) Joy seems a little beyond me at present so it will be an

    interesting path to travel.
