-
- There are two sections to this file. The first section deals
- with conversion of code from WordPerfect 4.2 to WordPerfect 6.0.
- The second section is concerned with conversion of code from
- WordPerfect 6.0 to WordPerfect 4.2.
-
- Where an entire function family (for example, Advance Up, Advance
- Down, Advance Left, etc.) converts OR does not convert, only one
- entry is made (for example, Advance) and the conversion is
- listed. Where most of a function family converts similarly,
- usually only the exceptions are listed. Since most codes convert
- to a functionally close or exact match, these tables emphasize
- the differences. If a code or function is not listed, it
- converts transparently to the other format.
