I recently downloaded a MacWrite document from Compuserve, converted it, and
opened it up.  I didn't like the margin settings on it, so I made the
rulers visible.  To my utter surprise, the rulers were ruled in CENTIMETERS!

Does anyone know how to get MacWrite to give you metric rulers?  It is
obvious on reflection that this should be possible at some level.  Are the
ruler templates a resource, and if so, what flavor?
