Znol is currently unable to parse lines of the format:
username # arbitrary comment
which I consider an annoying limitation. Here is a diff of a patch I made and
the original source /mit/zephyr/src/clients/znol/znol.c:
134,135d133
< char *comment_ptr;
<
142,151c140,141
< /*
< Following is wee little patch to allow this format in .anyone files:
< username # some comment
< Added by Daniel Bromberg, Sun Sep 11 02:05:34 1994
< */
< if (comment_ptr = strchr(cleanname, '#'))
< *comment_ptr = '\0'; /* ignore from # onwards */
<
< /* Get rid of old-style nol entries, just in case */
< cp = cleanname + strlen(cleanname) - 1;

Hope this is helpful.
