Yes... I made once a program in Basic using this method to convert texts
written in Wordstar onto a format my printer can handle.
The programming was not an easy task but when it is up and running at
last it takes abt. 20 seconds to convert. The program is used on a daily
basis for abt. 5 years now.

But to use the suggested "U" function on the cache.idx looks also
promissing but: "Incompatible Version" is showed.
Wwwman.exe 27664 23-12-02 19:01 is used.

If -one way or another- a good list of original and cache name is
generated it is no big deal to use norton commander to change to names
back to its original names...
