Import and Export Tracks as Files (New Editor)

    Hey guys, just working on the importing and exporting of tracks.
    As we all know when you paste large track codes into the import box, it can get quite sluggish.

    In the new editor, I have made the paste very quick , and no longer lags. In addition to this, I have added support for file import and export (working on export right now ). It is very quick to import tracks now, and should allow you guys to share tracks easier.

    Let me know what you think.

    Edit:
    I have more or less completed exporting tracks, you can save tracks to file automatically.
    Another thing I wanted to show you guys is track merging. You can now import tracks without clearing the current page. I am not sure on the practical use of this, but it is there, and is not limiting you guys in any way.

    I am hoping to add support for a compressed binary version of the track format. Maybe a .frhd file. Im not sure yet. For those who make very large tracks, this is a pretty big step forward.

    My pleasure. I like hearing all of your input while I am developing the feature. It allows me to make adjustments, and keeps my motivation high.

    I'm confused and amazed at the same time. I can't think of a use for this, unless we're going to be able to move segments, that way I could put old art in new tracks or something.

    Btw, did you draw that? If so, nice plane
