	I'd like to make an addendum if I may.  I do all my document
processing and psuedo-publishing on the Mac, but my boss wants all
documentation available in Scribe format on our VAX 8650.  Does anyone know
of a converter that will turn a Word, WriteNow or MacWrite doc into a file
with Scribe commands?  I'd hate to waste three days writing one myself if
it already exists...

	Personally, I think we should just have the lowest common
denominator stored on-line -- PostScript.  After all, several of us can
program in it, and almost every program can output it.  But, that's why
they call her the boss... :-)


>Thanks for any assistance.

	Ditto!
