     This fix defines a sample SCL template, CRASCL, which is used by           
     Package Editor for CA Endevor SCM(R).                                      
                                                                                
     When used, this template SCL will limit which actions and                  
     options are allowed when CA Endevor(R) Packages are processed.             
     The template SCL must lists the valid actions and options.                 
     Actions and options that are not listed will not be allowed to             
     be specified in the Developer for System z Packages Editor.                
     Other information in the template SCL, like environment or                 
     element name, is ignored by the Developer for System z Packages            
     Editor.                                                                    
                                                                                
     For example, in order to prevent an action from being accessed             
     in the Packages Editor, that action would be removed from the              
     SCL template.                                                              
     In order to prevent an OPTIONS parameter from being used in                
     certain actions, this OPTIONS parameter would be removed from              
     the template SCL for these actions. Other OPTIONS parameters               
     would continue to be allowed, if they are specified in the                 
     template SCL.                                                              
                                                                                
     Note for mutually exclusive OPTIONS parameters:                            
                                                                                
     For actions that contain OPTIONS parameters that are mutually              
     exclusive (for example, SEARCH and NOSEARCH), the action is                
     specified more than once in the template SCL, once for each of             
     the OPTIONS parameters that can only be specified exclusive of             
     the other. There is no need to specify the non-exclusive OPTIONS           
     parameters more than once for each of the repeated action.                 
                                                                                
     For example, if an action accepts SEARCH and NOSEARCH as OPTIONS           
     parameter, the action is once specified with the SEARCH                    
     parameter and all other non-exclusive parameters, and once with            
     the NOSEARCH parameter without the non-exclusive parameters.).
