Hello list,

I've made a little utility to trace scanned artwork into (x,y) co-ords. I'm
writing these co-ords out to a text file using FileIO. Wa-hey! it worked!
Why do I want to do this? because I read this file into a primative CAD/CAM
system - this allows me then to cut out the shapes I have sketched and
scanned in... Why did I use director to do this? because it's the only
development environment I know...
But the only problem I have is I'd like to write the files with a .TPL
extension instead of a .TXT extension, I have struggled a little but I can't
figure out how to do this, any advice very much appreciated. I have
obviously been renaming the files manually for the time being.

Best Regards,
Nigel
