Subject: I got the editor installed/working! (aruggeri's DW8000)

I was looking for a free editor for the DW8000, and found aruggeri's
editor:

http://www.aruggeri.com/web2001/software.asp

Unfortunately, when I tried to install it (on Windows ME) I ran
setup.exe, and it couldn't extract the files properly. It's no longer
supported, so I figured out how to make it work on my own. Here's how
to make it work:

Manually expand all the files that end with an underscore. I used
expand.exe which wasn't on my WinME machine, but was on my Win98
machine. (Maybe there's something in WinME that can expand them but I
don't know what.) Here are the file extensions:

All .VB_ files should be expanded to .VBX
All .DL_ files should be expanded to .DLL
All .EX_ files should be expanded to .EXE
All .SY_ files should be expanded to .SYS
All .HL_ files should be expanded to .HLP
All .TX_ files should be expanded to .TXT

You run expand.exe from a command prompt. If you don't know the
syntax just run "expand /?" for help.

After expanding the files, run SETUP1.EXE (instead of SETUP.EXE.) It
needs to see the original compressed files, too, but evidently after
a failed attempt to decompress the files, it proceeds to use the ones
you expanded manually.

Hope this helps someone else! I just got a DW8000, and the editor
makes it much easier to create new patches.
