2.3.1 Filename extensions on NT
Up to V6.1, KID and the dummy Frustrum always created textual part files with the extension ".X_T" and accessed textual schema files with the extension ".S_T" (with a similar naming convention for other file guises and binary format files).
Since V6.2, KID and the dummy Frustrum test whether a file resides on a DOS style FAT device or a long name NTFS type device before opening the file, and act accordingly:
-
Files on NTFS devices use the same 7 character extensions (".xmt_txt", ".sch_txt" etc.) as on the other platforms.
-
Files on DOS style FAT devices use the same 3 character extension as at V6.1. They are shown in the following table in upper case for clarity, though the case is ignored.
This table shows the relationships between the FAT and NTFS names (files can simply be renamed when transferring between the different systems):
