I cannot help with conversion to wp, but for information on
converting script to html:
http://hotspur.psych.yorku.ca/~friendly/gml/gmlhtml.html

Please let me know if you get this working... I could not, but then
I am an end-user without technical knowlege of VM.

Also, please let me know if you find any other conversion tools.

There *was* a DOS and an OS/2 version but it was dropped several years
ago.  I must admit that I still use my OS/2 version daily.
