- Description
- The SHN file format, short for Shorten Compressed Audio File, is a type of compressed audio file developed for efficiently archiving high-quality digital audio. Shorten was one of the early lossless compression methods for audio, meaning it allows the exact original audio data to be reconstructed from the compressed data, without any loss in quality.
- Primarily created for Python, RST is a text file that uses reStructuredText markup language for in-line program documentation. It can also be used to develop standalone documents and simple web pages.
