[Gmsh] Comments in .msh files

[Robert Funnell]

In Section 1.8 of the manual dated 2008 Nov 21 it says 'All Gmsh ASCII 
text input files support both C and C++ style comments' but a message 
dated 2008 Nov 19 says 'you cannot add comments in .msh files! (I've 
added a note in the doc to make this clear.)'. Is that added note in 
the documentation somewhere that I haven't found?

Are there plans to add the possibility of comments in .msh files?
I've just added an export-to-gmsh feature to my software and it would 
be very useful to be able to include history comments. (A student of 
mine did a comparison of several mesh generators and concluded that 
Gmsh is the best for our purposes, and a couple of other students then 
used it. I'm finally getting there myself! Thanks for the great 
software.)
