Creating and Editing Song Files


Song files are text format files with the file extension .crd. They may be created or edited using any normal text editor. The file should be saved as 8-bit ASCII in contrast to Unicode or UTF-8.

The Windows application "Notepad" is a simple editor. It is quite adequate for creating and editing song files. When creating new song files using Notepad it will be necessary to enclose the filename in quotation marks in the save dialog. This will ensure that the filename is used literally and ".txt" is not appended.
