However, a Google search reveals the following other uses of .sls:
=A0 - A list of images for a slideshow ("sls" stands for = "slideshow script")
=A0 - The backup files for some program callled Litespeed
= =A0 - ScriptLab Scripts (seems to be an image generation program)
=A0 - Configuration files for the Salt infrastructure management tool

So we probably shouldn't use it ourselves. (Plus, I pers= onally think it's uglier than .scm, but that's not a strong argumen= t.)
