Here's a work in progress - and not much work going on at the moment, and far from being finished; probably won't get done til after my summer exams next month... http://skull.madtracker.net/piano2.mt2.bz2 It's in MT2 format (still using version 2.3), zipped up using bzip2. Any comments/suggestions? Hope you like it! Dave.

That's exactly what bzip2 is Very Happy

I don't have a RAR program, and bz2 compressed it about 500k smaller than my zip program, so I used it... I didn't know it wasn't so popular: most of the stuff I've downloaded in the past year has been .bz2, but then again they were all linux files...
Not sure why the link won't open; I don't have the track with me today but I'll upload it again in a non-"nerd" format next time. Thanks for letting me know!

Winrar opens it, but Firefox has some problems with the file association. It doesn't recognise it, and hence tries to open it as a text file. Rightmousebutton does miracles in this case. Inge

The bz2 extension wasn't configured in the web server. I added it but it still reports it as text/html (hence the problem with Firefox). Yannick

Thanks for the help; it's downloading fine now! It tries to save with a .htm extension, but that's only a minor problem. If anyone wants to hear it, there's a bzip2 extractor here: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/gnuwin32/bzip2-1.0.3.exe?download dave
