Nice idea, unfortunately Word sometimes breaks the RTF files in odd places. You may have to open the file in a text editor to ensure that $Revision: 1.4$ doesn't get turned into $Revision\\ :\%20\1.4\$ or something equally screwy. The nicer thing about Word is that once you fix it, if you don't actually make changes to that line in Word, Word usually won't re-write the code for it - so if you have to fix it, you should only need to fix it once per file. I just poked around a bit more, and discovered that both XL and Word have something called a "Web Archive" format as one of the file formats. It creates a single file with all the multiple web files tucked into it, and its all text. Here's the first line of a word file I saved like this: ____ MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/related; boundary="----=_NextPart_01C35CF9.6F28C1E0" This document is a Web archive file. If you are seeing this message, this means your browser or editor doesn't support Web archive files. For more information on the Web archive format, go to http://officeupdate.microsoft.com/office/webarchive.htm ____ M$ IE recognizes it - even gives you a link to edit in Word, and it looks like it's a CVS happy format. Tried this with an Excel doc and got the same result. No loss in formatting, single text file viewable in a browser (well, at least in IE, looks simple enough, I'm sure Moz supports it) I think we may start using this here! __________ do fork agent( smith ); repeat; > -----Original Message----- > From: bo.berglund at system3r.se [mailto:bo.berglund at system3r.se] > Sent: Thursday, August 07, 2003 3:02 PM > To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook > Subject: Re: [cvsnt] $log & $header in M/S files > > > On Thu, 7 Aug 2003 08:15:31 -0700, "Glen Starrett" > <grstarrett at cox.net> wrote: > > >IMHO it would likely cause more problems than it's worth though.
