Has anyone else out there had problems transferring Macintosh RTF documents to their NeXTs? When I did it, all my quote marks (and some other characters) appeared as non-typeable, very strange characters. I've written a simple filter program to take care of the bad RTF definitions I've found so far; if you'd like a copy of the source code, please email me: dejnsen@caen.engin.umich.edu and I'll send it to you. The basic problem is that Mac and NeXT RTF define a lot of non-ascii characters differently--all you have to do is go through the RTF (ascii) file and change the 'escape' sequences. The source code has more information on this.
