What I am trying to do is convert all of the domesday articles into XML files,
that I can then use lucene to search them.
Seems there are only two differences in modes 0-6 according to the wiki article
http://beebwiki.mdfs.net/ASCII

The other odd thing about these files is every line starts with a space.
