I do, however, see
Input lines are made up of fields. Fields are separated from one another
by any number of white space characters. Leading and trailing white
space on input lines is ignored. An unquoted sharp character (#) in the
input introduces a comment which extends to the end of the line the sharp
character appears on. White space characters and sharp characters may be
enclosed in double quotes (") if they are to be used as part of a field.
Any line that is blank (after comment stripping) is ignored. Non-blank
lines are expected to be of one of three types: rule lines, zone lines,
and link lines.
in the zic manual page.
