AFAIK both programs (dm2k for sure) do not support entering comments in an
adl-file.

Even editing an adl-file by hand doesn't make sense. You could enter a
block with any "unknown" keyword and curly braces enclosing your comment
since unknown blocks are simply ignored when loading the file. But the next
"save" from within dm2k would only save "known" blocks.

What's your intention to add a comment? Did you want to comment/name
elements in the editor for easier identification in the produced file? 
Or have sth. like a comment-header to clearify purpose of adl-files? Or?

Thomas
