I would like to create some tools to dump MacOS text documents into
troffable form, or perhaps vice-versa.  Does anyone have a specification
available for one of the widely-used formats, like MS Word (maybe RTF?)
or MacWrite?  One that carries some formatting info along with it, such
as indentation, fonts, and point sizes?  I called Microsoft Customer
Support and they had nothing available to release.

Pls e-mail responses.  Thanks.
