Yeah. I admit it can be quite useful to have some control over at
least font size and style to make things more readable. And in these
days where HDDs are commonly 160GB the extra characters hardly matter!

I must confess too, that although I do *save* as simple text (as I
actually said , I do often later edit files of particular interest
and then save as RTF or even DOC to preserve the "prettying".
