Adim,

There has been a detailed (and highly skilled, IMO) discussion of this
process in the past.

See the archives for more (and perhaps page 81 of ASLG about raw data), but
here are a few archive links to get you going...

For q=filemaker+styled+text

<http://search.lists.apple.com/applescript-users?q=filemaker+styled+text&wf=
200010&m=all&wm=sub&ps=10&np=1>


And some bookmarked results from that query...

The archive (difficult to use, IMO) can be accessed by date (year/month) so
check out:

near 09-Mar-2001
near 28-Nov-2002
near 09-Jan-2003


** My vote for most useful posts are the 2002 sequence above.

Ehsan posts a question, then answers his own post a bit later, then a nice
compact variant is offered by Kai. Good stuff.
