That's exactly what it does.  I save all of my DFM's in text format for 2
reasons: 1) language translation, and 2) revision control.

There is also a command-line program, "convert.exe" which lets you convert
DFM's to and from text format.  By the way, if you use Windows NT, that
program name conflicts with the NTFS file system converter.  If you use
"convert.exe", you would be smart to rename it to something like
"cvtdfm.exe".
