  Note. Technically speaking, a Zigzag project is a directory that minimally contains a file called seg.zzm. This file contains information about the reading text and its various parameters (ex.: font, format, matrix). A Zigzag project can also contain image files, those images accompanying the text or list of words. The images, in bmp, gif or jpg format, can be found in a sub-directory of the Zigzag project called img. A Zigzag project can also contain a file called qus.zzm. This file has the questions linked to the text (i.e. multiple choice, true or false).
  
  
  Once generated, a Zigzag project acts as a reading test used through the Zigzag Test application. The results gathered from the readers from the Zigzag Test application are also part of the Zigzag project; they can be found in a sub-directory of the Zigzag project called tests.
