Footnote 1 Files that are of binary type require files to be uploaded with header even if the Auto Header preference in Packager is turned on.
Footnote 2 $HEADER$ should follow the $Header <file name> <version> <date> [<time>] <coder name> $ format, as indicated in CEMLI File Header Format.
Footnote 3 @2 at the beginning of the line indicates that the header line should be added as the second line in the file. This is important for XML type files.
