-  * BaseData.h - - This is where you declare a lot of structures (I think of them like complex variable arrays).

-  * OP2Script.dsp - - This is ... the developer studio project file.
-  * OP2Script.dsw - - This is ... the developer studio workspace file.
-  * OP2Script.ncb - - This is ... the non-plain text data file.
-  * OP2Script.opt - - This is ... a file that is generated and edited by Visual Studio.
-  * OP2Script.plg - - This is ... another file that is generated and edited by Visual Studio.
