The program outputs an anl and an ane files. Look in the program’s folder for an ‘output’ folder, that is where you will find the files. When rebuilding the ale file sinply select the ane file only, it will pack both of the files back together. It will make a tale file (as in temp ale), you can leave the extension alone or change it back to ale, will work either way. This was done so you didn’t accidentally replace an original ale file.
As far as editing, you will need to experiment. It’s been too long since I wrote it to remember much about the ale format. Others here may be able to help.

Try this file, it is the Star Trek warp FX I made years ago for SSM (my mod). The colors are changed and I think I commented it. If not let me know…

Feel fre to do so, Ale examples are a bit hard to come by…
