It's in the info file. Saw example on this site of course, but no bookmark :o
It will be in the handbook - just need to search. Example:

regions[left] = Left sidebar
regions[right] = Right sidebar
regions[header] = Header
regions[pre_content] = Pre content
regions[content] = Content
regions[footer] = Footer

You must include existing regions in there if you are going to add your own...

Hi, I'm also trying to create a "pre-content" region using Drupal 6.0. I'm using the Garland theme. I tried copying the above into garland.info but there is still no "Pre-Content" region selection available for my blocks. What to do?

I solved it. After uploading .info file, I had to go to admin>site building>themes for the system to recache the .info file. Otherwise it doesn't know it's been changed.

Working fine now :-)
