Oh wise ones, hear my plea.
I have a big KAMAS file (DOS outline processor) that I'm trying to read into MORE. KAMAS can produce both text files and "structured text." Structured text adds leader information to headers as in:
.HEAD 0 + Main title
.HEAD 1 + First subhead
.HEAD 2 - and so on
with each increment after the header referring to the level of indentation. I have attempted to read in this file to MORE 3.1 by Opening and by "Receiving From," without success. The file does indeed import, but all outlining indentations are lost. Any advice?
