There does not seem to be such a tool - at least a google search did not
turn one up, and since nobody else on the mailing list answered by now,
the chance that someone has such a tool in his drawer is pretty slim...

Since I do not know VSE at all, I can't tell you what purpose these
files have. If they contain metadata of any kind (and not window
specifications or such stuff) you can probably safely ignore them for now.


Depending on the kind of code you're trying to import, this might be a
very ambitious task, especially when you don't have good working
knowledge of VSE, Squeak, and the application to be ported.

Cheers,
