I just downloaded Moire from the sumex archives. After debinhexing/
unstuffing, I ended up with the application and the docs, which are
supposed to be Macwrite documents. However, my machine doesn't seem
to know that (generic document icon, and get-info shows just
document, not Macwrite document). Also can`t open the docs from
either Macwrite or Word.`

Am I doing something wrong? I downloaded it twice, with the same
results. Any other documents which I create come up with the correct
icon and are recognized by Macwrite and Word.

Second question: Moire seems to work correctly, except that I can't
change the sleep and never-sleep coordinates. In the control panel,
I can click on the sleep location button, and move the cursor to
where I want the sleep location to be. The coordinates of the cursor
are shown in the control panel, and change as I move the cursor. But
if I then click at a new location, the sleep coordinates return to
their original coordinates (upper right-hand corner). Of course, I
may be doing this wrong, but I don't know because I can't look at
the docs.

Any advice would be most appreciated!

Background: Moire version 3.02, on an SE/30, 6.0.4, same problem
under both unifinder and multifinder.
