How to Comment in PmWiki

There are several ways to do comments in PmWiki:

1. One can use the %comment% wikistyle, which uses CSS's "display:none" attribute to cause the comment to not be displayed on the browser (it still appears in the page source, however).

2. There's the (:comment ... :) directive -- anything placed before the trailing ":)" is treated as a comment and removed entirely when converted to HTML.

3. There's the conditional-markup form you mentioned above, with

        (:if false:)
        stuff to be ignored
        more stuff to be ignored
        (:ifend:)
