     Customize Project Template
 
     Choose Customize Project Template to edit and define build rules
     in the current project template.
 
     You must understand PWB build rules, NMAKE description files,
     UNIX-style regular expressions, and the PWB macro string syntax to
     customize a project template.
 
     WARNING: Use this command with care. You may corrupt your project.
              If this happens, delete the project makefile and project
              status file and start over.
 
     Option              Description
 
     Build Rule          Type a new build rule or edit the selected
                         build rule. PWB automatically prefixes the rule
                         with 'Build:' to define the appropriate Build
                         switch.
 
     Build Rule List     Select the build rule in the current project
                         template that you want to change.
 
     Set Build Rule      Choose to define the build rule shown in the
                         Build Rule text box.
 
     IMPORTANT: New rules may not take effect immediately. To apply the
                new rule, you may need to choose Save List in the Edit
                Project dialog box or define a new project based on the
                customized template.
