     Due to recent problems with Stylograph 6809, I was thinking about
writing a formatter with Stylograph syntax.  I'd be happy to try any
formatter you have onhand though.  I like the Stylograph file format and
syntax generally.  If nothing else turns up by summer, I've been thinking
about writing a word processor based on that file format/syntax, but
with the general functioning of VIP Writer, which I feel is one of the
best user interfaces on any word processor I've worked with.
