Subj: 	bcreate producing: [ setting leader to 'BIN' ]?
Why would the command: 	

bcreate -noheader tools/lib/lib_jacket.ksh
produce this line:
[ setting leader to 'BIN' ]
It also does this for *.c and *.h file?

Because noheader means no header, ie unknown or undefined file type, therefore 
assume binary - which does not include comments, therefore does not need a 
comment leader defined.

If you do not wish to have comments in the file, then

bcs -cNONE filename.ksh  will leave the checkin comments in RCS, but not the 
checked out file and bmerge should still work on it.

If you do want the comments included, then;

bcs -c"# " file.ksh will set the commet leader appropriately.
