However, since the KiXtart 2001 manual already tells us, I guess I did not need to trace the file type.

About KiXtart
KiXtart 2001 is a spare time project of Ruud van Velsen of Microsoft Netherlands.

KiXtart was developed on Windows XP using Microsoft Visual Studio, Microsoft Visual C 6.0 SP4, Microsoft Assembler 6.1 and the Windows 32 Software Development Kit.

The SPK format used by the PLAY command was originally designed by Gordon E. Peterson II. The SPK files were translated from BASIC and Assembler programs gathered from various public domain sources
