That's what I assumed after playing with the file (aside from the "
(Moderated)" part which is of no interest to me, at the moment).

BTW, is there any tool to add/remove lines to/from that file?

If not, then that's not that bad:  I've written a tool for a similar
purpose and could probably adapt it easily.
