	I have started writing a simple AppleWorks (Classic) Word Processor 
displayer (a shell utility), and would like some suggestions:
     First of all, which commands, if any, should I use inverse text for 
(subscript, superscript, boldface, underline, etc.)?  
     Should the new page commands be ignored?  
     Should I ignore double and triple space?  
     Are there any other formatting options that I should handle in a 
particular way?  
     Would it be helpful to have an option to print formatting options (like 
center, etc.) in a format like AppleWorks does in Zoom mode
(i.e. ----Center)?

	Is there anything else that would be nice to have?

Thanks.
