KAMAS and PC-Outline could output “structured outline” files, whose lines looked something like this:

.HEAD 0 + My main heading
.HEAD 1 - the first subordinate heading
.HEAD 1 + etc.

Using MORE 3.1, when I try to “Receive from” such a file, I can read it in as plain text, but it does not preserve or interpret outline structure.

I thought I remembered seeing somewhere on this site that MORE *could* read structured files. Any help would be appreciated.
