Please at least ship a utility which can read 1.1.6 files!  One of the
reasons that I use free software tools over MS crap is that it is less
susceptible to bit-rot.  I don't want the letters I wrote a year or
two ago to be unreadable on my newer system... else I will just have
to go back to doing everything in .tex, at least that doesn't rot...
