My Most abject apologies it should of course read

you could also make lines 011 to 016 be empty,
and add a freeform remark to line 017
{in ED insert lines w/ just Z on them, then change Z to nothing
in that range of lines. Honestly, U editor is worth learning...}

Why put in any remarks at all?
Well, how about
'what is this file good for?'
'what year did I create it?' (in case you need to
fetch an old copy from backups some day...
'what program populates this file?'
'is there some future date or situation that permits clearing
or deleting this file?'
to let you SORT MD WITH A17 = "[project moonbase]"

You can keep seperate remarks in the md foo item distinct from the
dict foo foo item. Any qpointers to the file can get a third set of comments.

You might find it tedious to adjust all your files to default right-adjusted;
a lesser cure is to copy md *a01
to: *a0r
and edit that so it is attribute 0, right adjusted,
and get in the habit of doing SORT THISFILE BY *a0r etc, etc.
