Worked perfectly! :-)

fine; even better, copy-and-paste, directly from Writer, seems to
produce understandable files, too.

I save and open these files as ordinary text, not encoded, and
everything seems to work fine (so far!). I don't understand why Text
Encoded is needed, or what advantage it gives.

When I was a hippy chick in San Francisco, around 1973 or so, one of my
boyfriends was building a microcomputer from a kit. I learned how to
solder components, though I never built a full kit myself. After I moved
to Australia in 1974, I eventually ended up writing software
documentation, starting in the early 80's. My main claim to geekdom in
the 80's was having an email address, when these were unusual.
