File

The File menu allows to create new or open existing race files,
and to save the race file using its name or to save it as a new file.

The suffix of the Velum race files is *.vng.

As you open a race file Velum will NOT work on the race file directly.
Instead Velum creates a temporary copy of the race file (*.~vng) in which all input, as soon as a dialog windows are being closed, is saved.
If you choose <file save> the temporary work file is used to replace the original file.

When restarting Velum after power loss or system crash you will have the option to resume work on the temporary file that was left behind during the crash.
In this case all the data will show up, except for the data of the very last edit fields.

Note:
At the current status of Velum development, network access or simultaneous multi-user access to the same racefile is not allowed and not possible.
