This translator doesn't get everything, but does a great job in many cases. To see how well it really works, I need some people to try it out. If you want to translate from RTF to ATK and are willing to send back bug reports, send me a note and I'll send the translator. Incidentally, a recent message asked what Ness is for. One task it excels at is writing translators from one document format to another, especially when one of those formats is ATK. The RTF to ATK translator is written in Ness. Fred Hansen
