I think there is a problem with saying "MacWrite format".  MacWrite II
can save documents in "MacWrite 5.0" format, but when I gave such a
document to my colleague (with a 512 Mac, running MacWrite 4.5), his
machine bombed when he tried to open it.  I assumed it was the difference
between MacWrite 4.5 and MacWrite 5.0 formats ???
