compressing INI files

I found a utility to uncompress the FL ini files, now for the next question......once I have edited this file how or what utility do I use to recompress the file so FL can use it??????

You don't need to recompress them. FL can read both forms. All you need to do, assuming your tool created a fresh txt file, is go to the "save as", check "all files" in the drop down box, click on the original ini and overwrite it

but its best to recompress files...

one time I redid all of Liberty System and made it huge... (since i only have demo)

and I started it and ended up with a 5 minute loading time due to the many uncompressed ini files...

All tutorial writers email me permission for your tutorials... Because I wish to put them in a FAQ in gameFAQS.com bartsimpsondude[[email protected] write subject as PERMISSION

Thank you for your time...
