The file formats he sent you are those emitted by the professional dev kit from SN Systems. Unfortunately, while the files are really close to something that could work, it's probably not going to help you all that much in your Yaroze coding. A better approach to take might be to go to the web site and download all of the examples you can. There are somewhere around 70 demos up there that you can download, build, and run. All of the examples from Sony are shipped with source code. Thus, you can try out some of the demos and change the code to see how that affects the program. Then, once you have gotten a hang of the build process and the demos, you can move on to writing your own code from scratch. -Joel In article <34C1AA34.D9DAB9F8@triplebeam.com>, troy@triplebeam.com wrote: >I'm not really sure what this .cpe file is.
