textual accentuation as opposed to *bold* etc are
nice, but agree are not necessary. Footnotes should
not be required, as heck, it's only a fan-fic!!!!

Correct, just means you can use your Wo-pro (Wordpad
or whatever) to do the formatting as opposed to
embedding it in the file (and wasting many K's of
space)

Behind you ALL the way on this point!!!

Just for my reference, to get formatting ideas etc, if
you mail me a link to a good site (do it off group,
since this is getting OT)
Due to embedding of images (if things go the way I
plan) for Scrapper - The Challenge, it will initially
come out in Word format, but I will probably produce a
text rip and post the images separately for those
blessed enough to be away from the MS world...
Look for my TEXT formatted song parody of Short Skirt
/ Long Jacket (White Stripe / Long Tail) getting
posted today!
Scrapper, Black Dragon, who would love standards to be
standard! Preferably efficient too... O.o
