When I first started playing around with designing circuit boards I used a program that created files with .asc and .apr extensions. That was about 12 years ago and it was a free program. Does anyone know what that program might have been or what program I can use to open those files?

.asc files: http://csulb.libanswers.com/faq/30631 .apr files: http://www.solvusoft.com/en/file-extensions/file-extension-apr/ It looks like the .asc files are text files, and the .apr files are design files

when I worked at an electronics plant the engineers there used Tango there were 2 programs , tango pcb and tango sch . one was the board the other the schematic . the program as I recall needed a parallel port dongle. They sent it out and had it broken so that wasn’t needed.

I found what I was looking for. The program I used way back when was PC Lite. It created only the PC Board, not a schematic. It used the extension .asc. Thanks for your response.
