OK, thanks for the information. That's very useful to know.
Might be useful to add it to the README file at some point.

I raised the issue because the RAT report showed that several files
did not have headers.

I withdraw my objection to the missing AL headers; as you say, it
would not be appropriate to add them to the exported files.
