Meta Commands

Introduced in screenshots and code starting with Part 2 of this series, there are commands that do not produce output, but who work on the project itself. These are the meta commands: *title, *author, and *comment.

Title

The *title command does as it name implies: it sets the title of the project. When used toward the beginning of the startup.txt file, it defines the title.

Author

The *author command, like the *title command, follows a similar functionality. It defines the author.

Comment

Unlike *author and *title, the *comment command is for the programmer only. It allows for writing comments within the code that do not appear when it is run.
