 @rem Run Tests.  Run the regression test suite.
 @rem Plain "rt" runs Release build, arguments passed on to regrtest.
 @rem "rt -d" runs Debug build similarly, after shifting off -d.
+@rem Normally the tests are run twice, the first time after deleting
+@rem all the .py[co] files from Lib/ and Lib/test.  But
+@rem "rt -q" (for Quick) runs the tests just once, and without
+@rem bothering to delete .py[co] files.
