Faux_Pseudo: "From there I just ran the macro a few times. You don't need to ever see the macro when doing this but you can and you can edit it manually if you want. But based the examples you have provided I would recomend a two prong attack." Thanks for this macro exmaple, Well, that's how I actually did it, using Word for DOS and an ASCII editor... So, just as you, I had to create all the tables and formulas in a dedicatededitor and insert them into a text file made with Word. But the wrapping was a manual work, and the document produced wasn't "robust": a little change could require an unproportionally strenous effort to maintain the formatting (due to the lack of an inner format). An ideal editor would store the document in it's own format (where tables are tables, paragra[hs stored as such and have styles etc.) and .txt is produced by the export fucntion, just like making a PDF from a Pagemaker document *.pmd. Somehow that reminds me of the Enriched mode of emacs, but I am not suer emacs can produce a correcly formatted ascii based on the an enriched text document... And, don't you know whether it's possible to write extensions for emacs in a programming language other than lisp? Anton
