 The current message file format is:
 {{{
 <message-id>  <text of message>
 + Extended description
 + :
 }}}
 i.e. flagging each line of the extended description with a "+" sign and no
 flag for the message ID.

 To simplify the creation of the extended description, this ticket reverses
 that, preceding each message ID/message text line with a flag, and having
 no flag for the message description, i.e.
 {{{
 % <message-id>  <text of message>
 Extended description
  :
 }}}
 (The character used for the flag left to the discretion of the
 implementer.)

 This task involves updating the message compiler to process the new-format
 file correctly, and updating existing message files.
