> This program is a simple utility that reads the outline portion of a
> MORE? II, MORE? 3.0, or MORE? 3.1 file, and converts it to a simple,
> well-formed (in the technical sense) xml file. This software makes
> no attempt at extracting the text that is visible only in MORE's
> Bullet Chart view; it's just an outline thing.
>
> To convert a MORE? file, drag it (or a multiple selection) to this
> program's icon and drop it there. This software does not delete or
> overwrite files, and it ignores everything except MORE? files. If
> you try to open this program by double-clicking on it, all you will
> see is the About Box.
>
> MORE? to XML is FREE, but I retain copyright to the software. I make
> NO WARRANTY that it will do what you expect. However, if you have
> any problems with the software, I'd like to know so that I can
> perhaps make it do what you expect. Use it at your own risk. It is
> possible that the program may crash if it encounters a corrupted
> MORE? file, although I have not experienced that.

> After writing a MORE? to TEXT converter, I decided it would be
> pretty cool to have lots of XML data originate from an application
> that hasn't been in development since 1991. I wrote MORE2TEXT in
> such a way that the XML conversion was trivial to add.

> Because XML is a way to represent structured data, here is a brief
> description -- in English rather than as a DTD (Document Type
> Definition) -- of the structure of a converted outline:
>
> ? A converted file consists of the XML header followed by a single
> element.
>  ? A can consist of zero or one ("comment") elements, zero or one
> elements, and zero or more elements.
>  ? , , and can also contain character data.
>
> That's it.

> REVISION HISTORY
>  ?Release 1.3 (19 August 1999)

> ".xml" to the file name.
>
