Yes I mean chown.
For some odd reason my usage of chown gave only warnings the past few years when I used the incorrect syntax.
Thank you for the correction and Enlightenment

chown user.user
was the syntax until until I recently noticed that it was changed to
chown user:user
I have to check out why that occurred. I also have to check if they only changed it in the Linux version of the command or if the change was also propagated to the BSD flavors of operating systems

In contrast to : for comments which is an abuse of label syntax in command scripts, the REM command in Microsoft's/IBM's COMMAND and CMD is indeed exactly that, a bona fide command.
So it has the twist that REM /? is not actually a comment line. It's a request for the on-line help of the REM command.
It's more special cased in #TakeCommand than in #CMD, interestingly, in that redirections are not parsed.

What if you invent a file format that has comments but isn't human readable?
Like the old sendmail.cf files.
The evidence suggests that the reverse happens and everyone else spends well over a decade in the penalty box. (-:
The fun ones are where the comments are mere side effects of throwing away all lines that don't parse properly.
Like how invalid : labels became a way to do comments in scripts for Microsoft's COMMAND/CMD.
# Y ya probaron el comando "dysk", esta muy chulo y devuelve informacion sobre los sistemas de archivos, de forma mas clara que "df".

Related little typographical tidbit:
If you want to enter the symbol for the command key, it’s known as the “place of interest sign” and you can enter it via the emoji picker by searching for “place”.
