[comp.os.msdos.apps] Need Wordstar file format

Hello all,

     I'm working on a project involving a large amount of data conversion
from a non-standard, non-MSDOS, dedicated word processing system.  To update
the system, my organization wants everything converted to Wordstar files
(though in my opinion, WordPerfect is much better).  This is fine with me;
Wordstar documents seem to have a much simpler file format.

     But I still need the complete file specification for Wordstar files.
I've found many of the common control codes by just experimenting, but I
could use some help with the more obscure commands (set lines per inch,
font select, etc).  I'd appreciate any information you could send!

Thanks,

Mark Fontana
