DESCRIPTION

This program converts between Rosegarden (.rg) files and

Rosegarden Project (.rgp) files. It is primarily intended to be

used internally and transparently by the Rosegarden application.

A Rosegarden file (.rg) is a single file (in gzipped XML

format) that defines a Rosegarden composition in terms of events,

segments, programs, plugin data, references to audio files, and

so on. Some of these types of information depend on the presence

of external files such as the audio files or plugin preset data,

without which the file cannot be used.

A Rosegarden Project (.rgp) file is a bundle of files, in

cluding the Rosegarden file itself, as well as any audio file or

other external data it requires, in compressed form. A Rosegar

den Project file is intended to be portable and self-contained,

but the Rosegarden program itself does not (at the time of writ

ing) understand these files directly.

This program can take a Rosegarden file, examine it to

find out which other data files it uses, and pack it to create

the corresponding Rosegarden Project file. Conversely, it can

also take a Rosegarden Project file and unpack it as a project

directory for use with Rosegarden.
