[François Revol <revol@xxxxxxx>]

talking specifically on StyledEdit, knowing how it works, I doubt we ever see 
it in windows, since it relies on bfs attributes to store the font datas.
that's also why we can read a StyleEdit text using cat or more on the command 
line :)
for Gobe documents, well I think the windows version of Gobe should handle 
these :)
