counter designators:
counter.name.
c.name.
counterN
cN
N


    The counter .name. or counter number N's value is emitted into the output data file (.azk or .zil).  Should a counter specifcation be omitted and text provided instead (the first character of text not being numeric or otherwise matching a counter definition) then text will be emitted.  Currently text is limited to 500 characters (so it you're using it to record <prose> typed text keep this in mind).
