Please don't do that, it will break the formatter. Please
use:
@license AllPermissive

Yes, but editing the files manually isn't good enough. We
need license information in _all_ 340+ macros, so it has to
be generated by a tool. That's what my tool is doing, and I
will run it once I know all macros are properly assigned.
If you add the license in verbatim in addition to the
@license tag, then we will end up with the license _twice_
in the macro.
