Besides the obvious expansion possibility of adding more file translators, one could add:

Visualization procedures, first for the alignment functions, so you could see how much data you're cutting or padding, then for actually visualizing a channel.

Extra data manipulation routines, like amplifying a signal or generating a signal in the middle of an existing signal.

Replacing the MFC dialog boxes with custom coded ones, so we could have a proper layout on the main window, and be able to maximize the window.

Compression routines for the UDCS format... I'm thinking mp3 type compression on periodic signals like EEG and EMG that can take up a lot of space, and/or rar or zip compression, all of which could be brought into the File Manager code base from open source projects.

Concatenation of signals: If a recording computer crashes in the middle of a study, the File Manager would be able to take the two files recorded before and after the crash, and export the two chunks of data as one channel, possibly adding in zero values.

Fixing the many of the current translation limitations/bugs...
