Translations:Preference Packs/27/en

The Package Metadata file, package.xml, defines the name of the Preference Pack, and allows you to assign other metadata items such as a version number, author information, and tags (which are displayed in the main UI as a comma-separated list). For a Preference Pack saved using the GUI as explained above, a single package.xml file is created in the directory. This file is used to describe the details such as the name and tags of all user-saved preference packs. To change a pack's name or tags, that file must be manually edited with a text editor. It can also provide a template for distributed preference packs: the author of a distributed pack may choose to start by saving a pack locally, then copying the pack's subdirectory and this global package.xml file as a starting point, modifying the copied package.xml file to only reference the pack being packaged for distribution.
