there's a gui editor for .gig.. sfz you edit by hand, once you get to 
know sfz it, with a simple plaintext editor, is far superior than a gui 
could ever be.. There is however a gui for windows that works in wine 
called sfZed, it has a way of putting lots of rowchanges in the .sfz 
file tho so the files have several times more lines than one edited by 
hand.. makes it a pain in the butt to read/customize..
