Mark:

Your Emailer is using Windows ANSI encoding (ISO-8859-1/CodePage 1252) to
process a CodePage 437 file. It doesn't work. It's gobbledegook. You need to
attach that ProGraM in *binary* form. ZIP up the *actual source file* without
processing through any other program -- e.g. do NOT Copy and Paste! do not
supply just an "example" part of it, provide ALL of it! -- then attach to
another Email.

Translation program to what? To Perl? What for? Presumably, your source
documents are XyWrite files, and this program presumably processes them with
due regard for XyWrite's own format. If you're going to port your source docs
to another program, then you're going to need to use the native macro language
of that program to get Quark results. Or so I would think.
