Dear Ms. Neves, Quick addition to Dr. Rohlf's solution. To change a file extension on a Windows machine, you will need to do the following:
1) Open a Windows Explorer window. 2) On the ribbon at the top of the window, click "View" 3) Click the box for "File Name Extensions" (in the "Show/Hide" section) You can now edit the file extension (i.e., change .txt to .tps). I apologize if that was obvious or if you are not using a Windows machine; that's hung me up in the past. Hope this helped, James On Mon, Nov 6, 2017 at 4:46 PM, f.james.rohlf <f.james.ro...@stonybrook.edu> wrote: > Let it save it as a txt file then just rename the file. > > ------------------------- > F.
