| Alien Breed II v3.3 External Level Utilities |
+----------------------------------------------+

  There are two neat External Level Utils included with this version of ABII to help you out. Firstly:

LEVEL DECOMPRESSION UTILITY
===========================
  Yep, you guessed it. This utility decompresses compressed levels.

TI-83:  Copy ab2decmp.83p to your calc
TI-83+: Copy ab2decmp.8xp to your calc

  Then copy the compressed level to your calculator and run "ABII Decompression Utility" from Ion. Use [ALPHA] to select the level to decompress then press [2nd] to decompress it. When finished, it will display a message to tell you that it was successful. Press [CLEAR] from the main screen to return to Ion.
  If the program fails to run then you either don't have enough free memory to decompress the level or you don't have any compressed levels on your calculator. You need 3261 bytes (3267 on the 83+) to run this program.


Secondly:

LEVEL RENAMING UTILITY
======================
  Hmm, I wonder what this could do..

TI-83:  Copy ab2name.83p to your calc
TI-83+: Copy ab2name.8xp to your calc

  Then copy the external level to your calculator. Note that this program can only rename uncompressed levels. If you wish to rename a compressed level then you will first have to decompress it using the DECOMPRESSION UTILITY (see above). Run "ABII Renaming Utility" from Ion. Use [ALPHA] to select the level and [2nd] to start the renaming process. You can press [CLEAR] from the main screen to return to Ion without renaming any levels.
  You will be prompted to enter a new name for the level. Use the [Up] & [Down] keys and [2nd] to enter a new name. Note that if you enter a name that is already used on the calculator the old one will automatically be deleted.
  If the program fails to run then you either don't have enough free memory to rename a level or you don't have any uncompressed levels on your calculator. You need 1634 bytes (1637 on the 83+) to run this program.
