- I've been trying with several FW files (I thought it might be the
- FW lite causing the problem) sofar, but none would load. The '95
- I have is version beta 8. And I fully agree with you, it is most
- imperative that FW Win'95 is able to read the FW4 Amiga files.
- And preferably would also be able to save in that format so one
- could carry documents over. I don't think people would mind having
- to reset font paths or such between Amiga and Win'95 to much. But
- in the current state, FW Win'95 is useless for those who've got
- documents in FW Amiga format and would like to migrate these.
-
- It's a pity that whoever did the port ripped out the load/save
- routines for the Amiga FW format. It shouldn't have been that
- difficult to leave them in. :-(
-
- Pity...
