There are some pages on the net that describe making comments in
'StackOverflow Markdown', and one of them found the trick to make
comments in your tekst, that are not visible in print:

I trief this in Vim with a plain markdown file, where the following line
is skipped when you make a pdf with pandoc:

[//]: # (This syntax works like a comment, and won't appear in any output.)

Didn't find out yet what part dides visibility in the pdf version, but
it works.
