ay be turned on for multiple continuation sections by specifying
#LTrimon a line by itself.
#LTrimis positional: it affects all continuation sections physically beneath it. The setting may be turned off via
- RTrim0 (RTrim followed by a zero): Turns off the omission of spaces and tabs from the end of each line.
- Comments (or Comment or Com or C) [v1.0.45.03+]: Allows semicolon comments inside the continuation section (but not
/*..*/). Such comments (along with any spaces and tabs to their left) are entirely omitted from the joined result rather than being treated as literal text. Each comment can appear to the right of a line or on a new line by itself.
- % (percent sign): Treats percent signs as literal rather than as variable references. This avoids the need to escape each percent sign to make it literal. This option is not needed in places where percent signs are already literal, such as auto-replace hotstrings.
- , (comma): Treats commas as delimiters rather than as literal commas. This rarely-used option is necessary only for the commas between command parameters because in function calls, the type of comma does not matter. Also, this option transforms only those commas that actually delimit parameters. In other words, once the command’s final parameter is reached (or there are no parameters), subsequent commas are treated as literal commas regardless of this option.
- ` (accent): Treats each backtick character literally rather than as an escape character. This also prevents commas and percent signs from being explicitly and individually escaped. In addition, it prevents the translation of any explicitly specified escape sequences such as `r and `t.
- ) [v1.1.01+]: If a closing parenthesis appears in the continuation section’s options (except as a parameter of the Join option), the line is reinterpreted as an expression instead of the beginning of a continuation section. This allows expressions like
(x.y)[z]()to work without the need to escape the opening parenthesis.
