It does, but it requires a serial linkup (which requires slowdown.exe or a
virtual machine) and it can't be scripted. I'd like to go with a solution
around TCP/IP and a command line app or callable module so I could use it
from anywhere, not need a serial dongle, and not need lots of extra
software.

Thanks.

Doesn't the Windows version of NCU export Works documents as RTF file?

I like the word proc features in Works, and have written quite a bit of
stuff with it. The issue is getting it off the Newt (and eMate) with
formatting intact. I'm not concerned with images or drawing, just text with
paragraph marks and bold/underline/etc. I was hoping that anyone who
understood what was going on with NCU might be able to say "oh yeah, here is
a command-line app that reads the Works spew and converts it to RTF" that I
could harness into something else.
