"fileHeaderComment.parameter":{
"*":{
"commentbegin": "/*",
"commentprefix": " *",
"commentend": " */",
"company": "Your Company"
}
},
"fileHeaderComment.template":{
"*":[
"${commentbegin}",
"${commentprefix} Created on ${date}",
"${commentprefix}",
"${commentprefix} Copyright (c) ${year} ${company}",
"${commentend}"

"myvar2": "My Variable 2"
}
}

"${commentbegin}",
"${commentprefix} Created on ${date}",
"${commentprefix}",
"${commentprefix} Copyright (c) ${year} ${company}",
