1# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:

3# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
4# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
5# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
6# customary to leave one space after the ':'.
