This text datatype is not fully compatible with the amiga os
text.datatype since it does not follow the guidelines fully. The
author even states that he could find little information on the
subject of datatypes. Also this datatype does not work with the other
text datatype classes such as the MS-Word, Wordperfect and rtf
datatypes so this datatype on aminet is not compatible with the full
specs.
