By the way, recent experience has taught me a lesson in sending files from
word processors as attachments. While MacLink and other programs can
translate between various wp's, sending a file in RTF format essentially
guarantees that ANY word processor will be able to read the file
successfully, without too many strange characters. The only problem is if
the word processor has a special language kit (as found with Nisus using
certain fonts, etc.). Nevertheless, RTF does the job as well or better than
anything---and you don't need special conversion software at either end.
Just save in RTF and send it; most word processors that I know of will read
a RTF file successfully.
