downloaded a cap file caps-coupling.xml to my desktop

I just DL'd the file by clicking on it
It downloaded as Caps-Coupling.diy not as a .xml file

It's not a .xml variants file
It's a .diy file that you open in DIYLC
Then you can right click on any of the caps and make them a variant

doubleclicked, it opened, told it to save, got this;

told it to save again, manually re-named to .diy, worked  :cussing:
