== File format ==

If a Linux program is to be distributed widely, an LSM file may be created to describe the program, normally in a file called ''software_package_name''.lsm. This file begins with <tt>{{mono|Begin4</tt>}} and ends with <tt>{{mono|End</tt>}}. It has one [[field (computer science)|field]] on each line. The field name is separated from the value by a [[colon (punctuation)|colon]] (:). Mandatory fields are Title, Version, Entered-date, Description, Author and Primary-site.
