   Module I.D.:   MSW5 
   Module type:   Import module
   Author:        Dirk Haun @ WI2
   Status:        Freeware
   Version No:    0.00
   Version date:  21.11.1996
   Purpose:       Import of texts in Word5 format



Description:

This module extracts text from documents that have been written by the
Word 5 word processor. Graphics, text attributes etc. will be lost during 
importation.

Notes:
- Paragraphs are imported as single undivided lines; further treatment 
  with CHAINSAW.MDL by Thorsten Pohlmann is recommended here.
- Cross-head titles usually 'stick' to the previous paragraph (without 
  a blank line in between). I haven't yet found out where the information 
  is hidden that specifies where such titles are positioned.
- As usual, I had no format description available, and only a handful  
  of texts for testing.
- It's not meant to be perfect ...


Standard disclaimer:

This module fulfils its objects for me, which does not mean that 
it will do this everywhere. So should one of these modules do
something unexpected, I cannot be held responsible for any sort
of damage caused thereby (whatever it may be) -- you use it at
your own risk.
