This is an Acorn RISC OS software application that converts from Impression TextStory Files to Text Files without the imbedded control information (in curly brackets), and is available for free download.

After having downloaded and unzipped the !Story_Text Application, drag the application to a suitable directory on your hard disc. Double click on the !Story_Text icon to load it onto the icon bar.

Double click on a Impression TextStory file or drag it to the bar icon to enter its file name into the main 'SetUp' panel slot. Alternatively clicking on the bar icon brings up the main 'SetUp' panel and the TextStory file can be dragged to this panel, or the file name can be typed manually into the slot at the top of this panel.

Select options from the 'SetUp' panel and then click on the 'Run' icon. After a while a translated Text file is offered for saving.

The translated file has the same leaf name as the original, but with an upper case 'T' infront.

Additional Help is available from the bar icon menu, or by using the Acorn facility !Help, present in the 'Apps' directory.

The version 1.03 now being supplied offers more control over the manner of the conversion.

Please read the text file !ReadMe present within this application for conditions of use. This can be obtained by holding down 'Shift' and double clicking over the application icon.
