.jrl A journal file contains a record of events—menu picks,keyboard, and so on—which are recorded for each session in Allegro. You can share this data with Customer Support..art Artwork files—manufacturing output sent to a vendor to

.tag  Keeps track of the last board worked on in your current directory.Without it, Allegro will open up a new board file.

.INI This file keeps track of the path your working file is in. The.INI file also keeps track of the window location, the toolbar,
