T. Brundage--
The help and the manuals are quite explicit: -h comments- says
There are several ways of adding comments in do-files and programs (ado-files).
1. begin the line with *
2. place the comment between /* and */ delimiters
3. begin the comment with //
4. begin the comment with ///
Note that the comment indicator * may only be used at the beginning of
a line, but it does have the advantage that it can be used
interactively. * indicates that the line is to be ignored. The *
comment indicator may not be used within mata.

I am trying to include comments the interactive session which is being
captured in
a logfile that will be used to create a do-file for the final presentation.
If I start a
line with "*", the line is ignored. If I use the "/* . . . */" combination
anywhere in the
line, I get an error message. If I use "//" at the beginning of the line, I
get and error
message. [Please see below]
