╫HILE THE ╙TEREO ┼DITOR AND ╙TEREO╨LAYER BOTH EXPECT TO FIND THE NORMAL
".═╒╙", ".╙╘╥", AND ".╫─╙" FILES FOR A ╙╔─, WHEN UPLOADING AND DOWNLOADING
╙╔─S TO/FROM A TELECOMMUNICATIONS NETWORK SUCH AS ╤-╠INK, IT IS DESIRABLE TO
COMBINE (OR ARCHIVE) ALL FILES ASSOCIATED WITH A PARTICULAR SONG INTO A SINGLE
FILE. ┘OU'VE PROBABLY SEEN THESE COLLECTIONS OF FILES, ALL OF WHICH CAN SIMPLY
BE ╠╧┴─ED AND ╥╒╬ TO EXTRACT ("DISSOLVE") THE FILES CONTAINED INSIDE. ╘HE
FOLLOWING FILENAME ENDINGS ARE THE MOST PROMINENT:
".╙┴╠" CONTAINS A .MUS AND A .WDS FILE FOR A ╙╔─; ".╙╠╥" CONTAINS A .MUS AND A
.STR FILE FOR A ╙╔─; ".═╙╫" CONTAINS A .MUS, .STR, AND .WDS FILE FOR A ╙╔─;
".╨╔╠" ├ONTAINS A .MUS AND A .PIC (PICTURE) FILE FOR A ╙╔─; ".╫╨╠" CONTAINS A
.MUS, .PIC, AND .WDS FILE FOR A ╙╔─.
╙TEREO ┼DITOR HAS THE ABILITY TO SAVE THE ╙╔─ IN MEMORY IN ANY OF THE FIRST
THREE FORMATS (PICTURE FILES ARE NOT SUPPORTED BY ╙TEREO ┼DITOR) BY USE OF THE
"╙╔─ ┴RCHIVE ═AKER" UTILITY.
┘OU WILL BE PROMPTED FOR A FILENAME FOR YOUR ╙╔─ ARCHIVE, THEN IT WILL BE
AUTOMATICALLY WRITTEN TO DISK AS A SELF-DISSOLVING ARCHIVE. ╫HEN THAT FILE IS
╠╧┴─ED AND ╥╒╬, YOUR ╙╔─ TITLE BLOCK WILL BE DISPLAYED IN A PLEASING FORMAT
AND THE USER WILL BE ASKED TO PRESS A KEY TO DISSOLVE THE FILES ASSOCIATED
WITH THAT SID TO HIS DISK. ┴LTERNATELY, THE ╙╘╧╨ KEY CAN BE USED TO ABORT THE
DISSOLVE OPERATION. ┴FTER THE FILES HAVE BEEN EXTRACTED, THE USER WILL BE
GIVEN THE OPTION TO SCRATCH THE ORIGINAL ARCHIVE FROM THE DISK.
┴LTHOUGH ╙TEREO ┼DITOR ARCHIVES HAVE A MUCH MORE SOPHISTICATED LOOK AND FEEL
THAN THE ORIGINAL ARCHIVES, THEY MAY STILL BE DISSOLVED USING THE ╧MEGA-╤ AND
╧MEGA-╤ ╔╔ UTILITIES, AND ╤-╠INK'S ═USIC ├ONNECTION SOFTWARE WILL ALSO
RECOGNIZE THE FORMAT OF THESE FILES.
