Subject: Wordstar Files (decoding)

I have several documentation files that are in "Wordstar" format, but
I do not have Wordstar! Since I have no desire to buy WS just to print
these files out, I wondered if anyone knows of a program that implements
just the formatting part . I have a copy of FILTER, which I used on the
files, that made them into straight ASCII text. However it can either remove
"dot" commands or leave them in, not execute them. Since it would be nice 
to get page breaks, and Headers and Footers, and Boldface and underline
I need something that will do just that. Any pointers would be appreciated,
even some documentation on what the WS commands do would be nice. If
there are any replies I will summarize.
