# Within a here document for a string_array, the '-' sign takes on a special
# significance.
#
#     To embed a blank line in the here document, put a '-' as the first
#       and ONLY character on the line.
#
#     To preserve whitespace at the beginning of a line, put a - on the
#       line before the whitespace to be preserved
#
#     To put a literal '-' at the beginning of a line, double it.
