Well, there's a description of (the?) Lotus .DIF file specification in chapter
4 of the book, "FILE FORMATS for popular PC software - A programmer's
reference", by Jeff Walden, Wiley & Sons, ISBN 0-471-83671-0.  It's too
long to quote here, so you'll have to find your own copy.  Sorry.

I _presume_ that the Data Interchange Format really is interchangeable...  :-)
