CSF file to txt File

Is there any way to change a CSF file into a text file counterpart like the UMP has.

I wrote loads of things in it but forgot to add _ between sections so it doesn't work and XCC wont let you change title's when they have been entered.

Would be much easier in txt.

Thanks.

I think the problem with doing that is the ability to resave it in .csf form. Currently, I dont know of any programs that properly edit the .csf other than xcc. You can try NotePad++, but again not sure if when you save it if it will muck the file up or not.

The only thing I know of is a VB script which can read/write CSF, used by Launch Base:

Dunno how helpful that is.
