    It's documented in REARJ.DOC:
= - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - =
     EXTERNAL CONFIGURATION FILE
          [ ... ]
     Each archive format requires four lines in the file.
     The first line is the format suffix.
     The second line is the archive ADD command ...
          [ ... ]
     The third line is the archive EXTRACT command ...
          [ ... ]
     The fourth line contains the letters "A" and/or "D" or no letters.
     The "A" stands for the ability to process files with the hidden and/or
     system attribute.  The "D" stands for full support of directory trees
     within archives.  No letters (blank line) stands for no support for
     hidden or system files or for archive containing directories.
     There must be NO EXTRA blank lines or comments in the file.  You may
     use leading blanks for clarity.
= - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - = - =
    Notice that even if you don't include the "A" or "D" in the fourth
line, the line (even though blank) is still required.
