Just for clarification, yep simply takes whatever *.snd filename it's
given, filters it to *.yep, sends *.yep to the editor, then filters the
*.yep back into the original *.snd that was handed it. No other filenames
are created by yep. (er.. unless you are using any of the block
processing "features"... then it creates temporary files for each nested
block in the format _######_.ywk, where the ####### is random junk (and
erases them when finished)... it doesn't erase the *.yep though -- i leave
it in case something goes horribly wrong so a user can go recover the text
file if need be... that's my theory anyhow <G>) If the extention isn't
*.snd yep passes the file straight through to the editor.
