In a curiously relevant case, concrete poet bpNichol created a series of 11 digital poems for the Apple IIe between 1983 and 1984. The last of which is only visible in the source code as a sort of pun: http://www.vispo.com/bp/download/FirstScreeningBybpNichol.txt http://www.vispo.com/bp/download/FirstScreeningBybpNichol.tx... - scroll to the very end (lines 3900 through 4000). The REM command is Apple Basic for "REMark" or a comment line.
