; Specify the format of the string to sign.
; Each comma character in the following string represents a LF ("\n") character.
; The names specified in the StringToSign are replaced with the values specified
; in the subsequent calls to SetTokenParam and SetNonTokenParam,.

; Note: The trailing comma in the StringToSign is intentional and important. This indicates that the 
; string to sign will end with a "\n".

; Also note: The names in the StringToSign are case sensitive.  The names
; specified in the 1st argument in the calls to SetNonTokenParam and SetTokenParam should
; match a name listed in StringToSign.
