+Minimal markup for documentation, text filtering
+=================================================================
+Release 0.43 synchronizes references to here, 
+provides minor fixes, and enhances dialogues:
+
+   `atari.cfg'  settings for conversion with:
+  
+   `atari.fdf'  from `morehype' exemplifies conversion with:
+
+`copyfile.cfg'  initializes:
+
+`copyfile.tex'  dialogue for compressing blank lines 
+                (and text encoding conversion)
+
+`fdtxttex.cfg'  initializes:
+
+`fdtxttex.tex'  dialogue for .txt -> .tex conversion
+
+`fddial0g.sty'  shared macros for the dialogues
+
+`fifinddo.sty'  documentation fix \WriteResult -> \ResultFile
+
+ `makedoc.cfg'  loads `color.sty'; provides \acro by `relsize.sty' 
+                (with a funny protection for hyperref bookmarks); 
+                uses \meta as semantical alias for \textit; 
+                [new with release r.0.43a:]
+                \MDkeywords passes keywords to \hypersetup 
+                as well as to `MDabstract' environment
+
+ `makedoc.sty'  documentation fix makedoc.cfg -> mdoccorr.cfg
+
+`niceverb.sty'  \gt for >, \lt for <; 
+                fixed noisy catcode changing in .aux 
+

 The NICETEXT bundle supports "minimal" markup syntax for rather 
 simple kinds of text. The code you type should show little more 
-characters than are printed, though you get LaTeX quality. We try 
-to do away with backslashes, technical terms, and curly braces 
-(which also are so clumsy to type on PC keyboards).

-Main focus is easy documentation of LaTeX packages. Preprocessing 
-by Perl or so is replaced by TeX macros (reviving/generalizing the 
-'docstrip' idea), including expandable, safe, correct string 
-substitution and typographical enhancements of plain text for 
-LaTeX input.
