VAX parallel directives

I found a few places in my legacy code where the obsolete VAX "parallel directive" feature exists, e.g.:

CPAR$ SOME_TEXT

Inasmuch as this is in a FORTRAN 77 fixed-format file, can I assume that this is simply ignored by Intel Fortran as if it is a comment?

Thanks,
JayB

I had to check, given that our compiler is DEC heritage, though not all the way to VAX. (I go all the way back to VAX Fortran, though!) Intel Fortran will ignore CPAR$ and treat it as a comment. Note that we do recognize CDEC$ and CDIR$.
