Having 2 of us in the echo with the same initials can make for some
confusion.  The "BW" above refers to Bill White, not to me; and his
point was that the result of using the 6.0 macro conversion utility
was such a garbled mess it was easier for him to rewrite his macros
in the new 6.0 format, in the course of which he necessarily learned
the new macro language.
The conversion utility should be reasonably obviously named -- such
as macroconv.exe.
