I don't like to see people distribute DOC files in WordStar format
because it **ASSUMES** that everyone has WordStar.  HOW ABSURD!
There's nothing wrong with distributing a WordStar OUTPUT file which
is already formatted (yes, even with multiple CRLFs instead of
formfeeds).  Most RCPM systems are SQUEEZing the files these days and
those multiple characters are stored aas only a few bytes in a
squeezed file.
