Thanks John so they are but I think I'll just keep copying them over with
the app as it's a lot easier than digging down about 5 sub directories :-)
The dmg I have doesn't show them with .txt on the end of the file name or
if they are I've turned it off somehow but they open up when you double
click on them ok.

Cheers Dave H.
