The newline character that * ends the line is not considered part of the comment. The * "#" starts a comment only when it is at the beginning of a * token. Since the search for the end-of-comment does not * consider an escaped newline character specially, a comment * cannot be continued to the next line." * * 6) "The current character will be used as the start of a new word." * * * - for each token (word), perform portions of word expansion, namely * field splitting (using default whitespace IFS) and quote * removal.
