I'm _not_ a Windows expert by any means - gave up on it many years ago -
but you could use the 'Search' utility to look for *.BSB and *.KAP
files, then select all the results and paste them into a new folder.
Seems like it would work...
Under Linux, it would just be "cp BSBs/*/*{bsb,kap} new_folder". But
then, you wouldn't need to do it in the first place. Linux programs
aren't written for the benefit of the company that sells them; they're
written to benefit the user.
