I'm not sure what gold wave has done recently so I can't speak to that point. A sub program is a stand alone kind of a deal that is accessed from another program using some sort of call statement much like DLL files are used to store and retrieve information from by a larger peace of software for example windows itself.

What that means is just like your Skype scripts that place a use statement at the bottom of your default file you could do the same thing with those files as well and it would work. Maybe an audio tutorial on the subject would explain it better than I could by email.
