 <DT>archive EXP<DD>Toggles archiving of .EXP files. When on, files are 
-        saved prior to each save or run of EXPEDT.
-        Each time a file is saved a note is placed in the .LST file
+        saved before they are overwritten by EXPGUI as a file
+        named <I>EXPNAM</I>.Oxx where xx is a pair of hexidecimal
+        digits (01, 02,..., 09, 0A,... OF, 10,... FF). 
+        Each time that EXPGUI archives a file, note is placed in the .LST file
         so that the saved file name can be associated with 
-        the refinement stage.

-Archived files can be loaded by using the File/Open (expnam) command:
-set the "Include Archived Files" checkbox, then select the file to be loaded.
-When an archived file is read, either the same experiment name can be used.
-In which case the archived file will replace the current version of the 
-experiment file, or the archived file can be saved under a new name.

-<B>Windows:</B> Old .EXP files are saved in a compressed form in 
-a file named [expnam].ZIP, if program PKZIP.EXE is found in the
-same directory where EXPGUI is installed (typically c:\gsas\expgui). 
-To read the archived files, you will
-need to use PKZIP or WINZIP to extract and rename them.
-If PKZIP is not installed, the files are archived by 
-renaming them [expnam]!xxx.EXP. These archived files can be read
-directly by EXPGUI, but you are suggested to save them under
-a new name using the File/"Save As" option.
