The pattern library maintains information about its member patterns in a static data file. You can add documentation to this library manifest file for the pattern applier to use.
A small subset of library information is displayed in the online help when the pattern applier clicks the Show Pattern Documentation menu item in the Pattern Explorer view. You can add a short description to this library information.
The library's manifest file has the same name as the library, with a file extension of .rmd.
