	Last semester I took an intro to TeX course, and for my final project,
I started a program that would convert a WordStar file into a TeX file.  The 
idea was to introduce math symbols into WordStar (probably by way of dot 
commands).  I ran into a lot of problems, and only got a couple of things 
working on it.   I was wondering if it was worth my time to pursue the matter
any further, or is there either a.) something already out there to do this, or
b.) a reason why it's not a practical venture.

						Thanks in Advance,
