Skip blocks
You can skip program blocks that are not to be executed every time the program runs.
The skip blocks are identified by placing a "/" (forward slash) or "/x (x = number of skip level)
character in front of the block number. You have the option of hiding several block sequences.
The statements in the skipped blocks are not executed. The program continues with the next
block, which is not skipped.
The number of skip levels that can be used depends on a machine datum.
