It is not a macro, it is a @value.  And I am not sure it is correct, as
in 
  '@set' and '@value'
it is said, about @set:

    The value is the remainder of the input line, and can contain
  anything.

Taken literraly, it means that a @c on the line is to be part of the
value.  I can change the Parser code to remove wha tlooks like a comment
from the value (trailing spaces are already removed), but then, maybe
the manual should be modified?
