Default or   -	if an undefined type name (like "-" or "default") is entered for this parameter a simple single-line input field is shown (like in the form of the Extension:CustomEdit. Parameters that are not mentioned inside the <typedefinition>-tag automatically have the default type. Only if you want to define an alternate Label or a comment you need to define a parameter with default type.	optional: password size	No parameters are needed but the following two are defined: password - makes the input field a password field where the input is not shown. size=n - where n is an Integer - Defines the width of the input field default value is 30
	E.g.: * ParameterName : - "Simple Parameter" // a single inputline is shown with this label and comment. * Scanncode : - (password,size=5em) "PIN:" // enter your PIN (The value is not shown on the screen.) * Date : - (size=10em) // write the Date in this format: YYYY-MM-DD
