Turtle API Questions

I have two questions:

1. When I download an API, it comes in a txt format, how do i get to the same format that the rest of the APIs are in in the API folder?

2. Can turtles use all the APIs a normal computer can use? Redstone, OS, shell, etc?

1) All the apis and programs are in text format, just that they have no extension. So, if your file has an extension, just remove it.
2) Yes, turtles are computers that move and dig, so they can use all the apis.

alright im going to sound like an idiot, but how do i remove it? whenever i save it without the .txt, it automatically adds it again

I guess you'r using notepad. Try something else, since it always adds the .txt extension. There's a lot of editors you can use, I recommend notepad++ or scite.

I beleive that my computer has mistaken the .31 at the end of magicTurtle1.31 for a file extension, as it now list it as a .31 file
