Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    I Don't Know

NDO Import would be fine format is described by a file at www.newdealinc.com.

New Deal Office was former called GeoWorks/PC. There are already some user groups in the net who could contribute. New Deal wrote NewWritefiles specifications down there is a document.
for new deal office seems to be 'out of office' perhaps they may contribute their ms word export filters. Try to ask them.

I already have some GeoWrite - Files but i am not able to read them anymore.

Geoworks originated from a C64 Office Suite. Then it became available on PC/AT: The motif style office suite had a faszinating speed running on poor hardware. It  lacked of a SDK. 
There are already some users and usergroups. Import filters would be fine in order to force them to chance the system. It would be fine to force them to release the source. NDO could already be a good work running on FreeDos.

Bug 48845 contains additionally the description of the file format. So I am 
marking this bug report as duplicated. 
 
Have a nice day/evening/night!
