The double curlies come first and surround the frame type (0, L, K,
5, or M) and framename(s); they're required. 02's (or, more rarely,
01's) are used to surround blocks of XPL code associated with a Help
frame; not all frames have them. Misplaced 02's and 01's will muck
up a Help file, too.

Because Dave Erickson thought of everything. Because you can!
