| Quit warnings
QUIT1:A sample is in the process of being %0. Quitting now would mean abandoning the output. Are you sure you want to quit?
QUIT1c:compressed
QUIT1d:decompressed
| Fill %0 in QUIT1 with either QUIT1c or QUIT1d
FILES1:is 1 file
FILESM:are %0 files
QUIT2:A sample is in the process of being %0. Quitting now would mean abandoning the output. In addition, there %1 waiting in the queue. Are you sure you want to quit?
| Fill %0 of QUIT2 as for QUIT1. Fill %1 with FILES1 or FILESM
QUIT3:There %1 waiting in the queue to be processed. Are you sure you want to quit?
| Flush warnings
ALSO1:is also 1 file
ALSOM:are also %0 files
FLUSH1:There %0 waiting in the queue. Do want to discard the queue?
FLUSH2:There %0 waiting in the queue. Do you want to discard the queue as well?
| FLUSH1 %0 = FILES1 or FILESM
| FLUSH2 %0 = ALSO1 or ALSOM

INVALIDRC:Invalid reason code returned from %0 (%1). Please report this error to the author.
BADRC:Undefined reason code returned from %0 (%1). Please report this error to the author.
BADFORMAT:Compressed sample '%0' is of a type not supported by this release of !Compress. More up-to-date versions may support this format.

| Help text for windows and icons
| ===============================
| Names are first by window name as in the templates file, followed
| by a zero padded two-digit icon number. If this can't be found
| the number is stripped off and the new name is searched for. If
| this can't be found either then no help will be provided. All help
| tokens have H added to the start. The icon bar icon is HIBAR.

HOPTIONS07:Precision to which future compression will work. Lower resolutions generally result in compressed samples of a smaller size, but with a lower quality.
HOPTIONS08:Click here to change the resolution for sample compression.
HOPTIONS09:Sample data format for future compressed samples. Logarithmic is 'lossy' but usually gives slightly better compression.

| Help text for menus
| ===================
| Names are 'H' followed by unpadded menu number, followed by
| 'M' then a 2 (or 3) digit number padded up to 2 if necessary
| giving the item number. For all menus except Type this is the
| index from 0 as it appears in the menu tokens above. For the
| Type menu, the item number is the Type regardless of position
| in the menu. The resolution menu is also different, in that
| item 7 applies to 4-7 and item 15 to 9-15. 8 and 16 are as
| normal.

H0M03:Click SELECT to quit Compress.
| Type menu
H1M00:Click SELECT to generate Type 0 samples.|MThis format is archaic and is only supplied in case you have a program which can only read Type 0 samples.
H1M01:Click SELECT to generate Type 1 samples.|MThis format is the successor to Type 0. It uses an adaptive algorithm developed by experimentation, but gives good results.
H1M02:Click SELECT to generate Type 2 samples.|MOnly very minor improvements over Type 1, but this is the preferred format. It is faster than Type 6 and often produces smaller samples.
H1M06:Click SELECT to generate Type 6 samples.|MStandard entropy coding of sample deltas. Slightly slower than type 2, and isn't quite as effective. It is completely lossless though.
| Resolution menu
H2M07:Click SELECT to store as %0-bit samples.|MThis will lead to a drop in quality, but will generally improve compression.
H2M08:Click SELECT to store as 8-bit samples.|MThis is the standard resolution used on the Archimedes.
H2M15:Click SELECT to store as %0-bit samples.|MThis will lead to a drop in quality if the original sample used more than %0 bits, but will often improve compression as a result.
H2M16:Click SELECT to store as 16-bit samples.|MThis is the maximum resolution supported. You will only get any benefit from this if you have a 16-bit sound card.
| Data format menu
H3M00:Click SELECT to choose the Logarithmic format.|MThe logarithmic format stores the sample in the form in which it would be sent to the speaker on an Archimedes, possibly leading to a slight improvement in compression.
H3M01:Click SELECT to choose the Linear format.|MUse this format if you want to preserve the maximum quality possible (pointless without a 16-bit sound card).
