   That is correct. The code scans through whitespace (space or tab) and if the first non-whitespace character is ‘#’ then the line is ignored.

   Maybe that is a SciTE4AutoIt extension. The reason that ‘#’ is not treated as a comment start elsewhere on a line by SciTE is that that would make using ‘#’ in settings (like colours) more difficult.

   For example this setting would be truncated:
style.python.0=fore:#808080
