I mean the ASCII document with the following incipit: >->-> LISTSERV(R) list owner's manual, release 1.8d --------------------------------------------- Copyright (c) 1996-2000 L-Soft international, Inc. ..... 5 May 2000 Revision 1 The reference number of this document is 0005-UD-02. <-<-< This is called listownr.memo (572156 bytes). The text is basically the same as in HTML version of the same manual (owner-html.zip or something like this). > } The manual says, that the form is defined by ">>>", a space, the > } form's name, a space again, and then the subject line for the form. > > No. Whats after the name is a comment. Excerpt from the manual: >->-> 9.3. Mail template format and embedded formatting commands ========================================================== Each individual template form starts with a form name and subject line, such as: >>> EXAMPLE1 This is the subject line Please note carefully the following instructions for the form name and subject line: - The template form starts with the line containing the form name and subject, and ends with the next line starting with '>>>', or at the end of the file. - The subject line may contain substitutions (such as "&LISTNAME: &WHOM requested to join"). - Ensure that there is a blank space (ASCII 0x20) between ‘>>>‘ and the name of the form, or LISTSERV will not recognize the form. - Also note that the names of the template forms must be typed in UPPER CASE. <-<-< So, it turns over, that in some forms it is a subject (like stated by the manual), and in some of them, like CONFIRM1, it is just a comment (like you say), but the manual doesn't explicitly say this.
