WWP vs. mif2rtf



Just to note:
If mif2rtf ever becomes available under the MacOS, I'll have occasion to
consider it. The same was true the first time I did such an evaluation, in
1994-1995. 

And the whole issue of Frame conversion and appropriate tools depends
primarily on the purposes of the conversion: 
*	Frame to WinHelp
*	Frame to AppleGuide
*	Frame to HTML-based help
*	Frame to intranet web site as HTML or PDF
*	Frame to Internet web site as HTML or PDF
*	Frame to CD-ROM publishing as HTML or PDF
*	Frame to PDF for delivery to print vendors
*	all of the above (single-sourcing) 

If one conversion program can ever be all things to all users, it will
resemble IBM's mainframe application programs of the 1960s. To quote a
retired engineer-programmer: "They were so powerful you could do ANYthing
with them, and they were so complex it took a year to learn to do ANYTHING
with them."
