"Term-Comments"

One of the ways that Notes supports PLATO's educational purposes is through a feature called "term-comments". While running a program, a user can press TERM and type "comments", and then type a note to the program author. Such comments are collected in a notesfile that the author has associated with the program. Each note is tagged with a header indicating the exact point in the program where the comment was made, so if a note reports that "entorpy is misspelled on this page", the author knows exactly where to look for the error.
