<Special Tags>





Fast_Load_End no Empty8 all fast opt. All tags intended to be loaded in "fast" mode have to be stored preceding this tag. For a preview of files, only the tags onto this tag are loaded (useful e.g. for shell extensions or workspace loading).
Take care to minimize the amount of tags preceding this tag!
If omitted, always the whole number of tags are loaded.
Header_End no Empty8 all std. mand. End of Header; Below this point, only binary data is situated
<Binary Data>
