	Both the GREP and Macro facilities of Nisus are SUPERSETS of the
QUED/M stuff.  The guys at Paragon started with the QUED/M routines and then
proceeded to improve them and add to them.

	To tell you the truth, I have not tried it but since both Macros file
are stored as TEXT-type files you should be able to bring them in without much
trouble.

	There is, of course, a speed decrease between Nisus and QUED/M but you
are comparing apple and oranges.  A more realistic question is how does Nisus
compare in speed to things like WORD and FWP - and the answer is it outspeeds
them both!!
