It opens as raw RTF. Here's a sample:

\tab "Believe me, Dr. Gre ene, I unde rstand. I k now how sed
uctive it c an be to fin d yourself here, some where that previousl
y only exis ted for you on TV. This is \i fun\plain . It i s, isn't it ?
Being inv ited to the President 's tea part y. Just bei ng in his co
mpany make s you feel l ike Somebo dy. Of cour se, you're not
\i really \plain somebody until you c an be blase about comi ng
here."\par

You can see the extraneous space problem that I'm dealing with-
-it seems to be XyWrite's filters which is inserting them.

Best,

   K-Mac
