Oh, the brute force approach? Well, that I can do with any text editor;
even with the 3 k "TED.COM" that DOS Magazine once published as a kind of
practical joke.
But where does that leave the formatting? The meaning of RTF is, to remind
you, to carry formatting across formats.

Of course. I can also open in MSWord first, or use "Word for Word" or any
number of detours. However, this is not something I want to explain to
people I might be recommending the software to, and asking for an RTF
filter seems hardly unreasonable.
