What is VSS file format?

The VSS file format is a type of file format developed by Microsoft primarily used for managing source control. It is the default file format used by Microsoft’s Visual SourceSafe (VSS) software, a popular source control system used by many software development teams. The VSS file format stores source code, documents, images, and other project related data such as tracking branches, labels, and user information. It also allows developers to work together on the same source code, create backups of source code, and track changes to the source code. VSS files are typically stored in a root folder and then each subfolder contains the project’s source code, documents, and other related files. Users can also make use of a special “History” folder which can be used to store a record of all the changes made to the code within the project. VSS files have become a popular choice for many software developers due to its user-friendly environment and ability to handle large projects. They are also easy to use, allowing developers to quickly get up and running with their project without any complex setup.

What is DIF file format?

DIF (Data Interchange Format) is an ASCII-based, tabular format for exchanging data between different programs and platforms. It is a text-based data exchange format developed by Lotus, a spreadsheet program. It stores data in a tabular form and supports basic data types, such as numbers and strings. DIF was initially developed to store spreadsheet data, but it is also used to transfer data between relational databases, non-relational databases, spreadsheets, text editors and other programs. It supports multiple sheets, columns, titles and comments. It also has features to help protect the integrity of the data, such as automatic type checking and range checking. DIF is still popular today, and is supported by several popular tools, such as Microsoft Excel, LibreOffice Calc, and GNUstep. It is also used by some development frameworks and programming languages, such as Delphi and Visual Basic. In short, DIF is a reliable and easy-to-use data exchange format that is still used in many programs and platforms today. It is a great choice for exchanging data between different programs and platforms, and is also a good option for archiving data.
