I will never understand, why Fred does not open this format.

I wonder whether the probem may be that Fred used some library
routines that he would be legally entitled to use in his own
programs,
but which were not his copyright and thus he cannot release the code.
Not sure whether or not this would affect releasing the file
formatting though.
Another thing that fascinates me is the compression routine for QTYP.
Did TT use a standard routine? The reason is that the dictionaries
page on my website has taken off with over 1,000 hits in the last
quarter and it now comes high on the search engines. Most people are
downloading the QTYP versions which indicates to me they are usable
in
other programs.
Nice to know that work you did for the QL years ago is still
relevant,
Best Wishes,
Geoff
