Comments

Comments start at a ; (semicolon) and end with the end of the line:

N3 T0*57 ; This is a comment
N4 G92 E0*67
; So is this
N5 G28*22

(example taken from the RepRap wiki)

If you need to use a literal ; somewhere (for example within M117), you can escape semicolons with a \ (backslash):

 M117 Hello \;)

\ can also be used to escape \ itself, if you need a literal \ in front of a ;:

M117 backslash: \\;and a comment

Please note that hosts should strip any comments before sending GCODE to the printer in order to save bandwidth.
