[lug] anyone familiar with Word file format issues?

[D. Stimits]

I'm curious, if I were to write a library that outputs some document
style as Word, has anyone heard whether MS would try to file a lawsuit
to stop it (think conversion utility)? Though I suspect it wouldn't be
practical, the standards for it probably are not published, or if so,
probably incomplete or out of date.
