An aquaintence mentioned to me that Wordwriter ST uses virtually the same
file format as 1st Word.  Later I then realized that the PD program 1stw2ps
(print 1st Word documents on a Postscript printer) should also work with
Wordwriter ST documents.

I tested this with an Atari 1040, Apple Laserwriter Plus, and a couple
sample Wordwriter ST documents and found that it does in fact work.

1stw2ps can be found at the terminator archive, as well as the
comp.binaries.atari.st archive
