Likewise here. My FAQ concerning the Temple of Set doesn't really have
a "master" document any more.

I started with a WordPerfect file which I then exported to HTML and
exported to text, but I kept finding myself making minor formatting
changes to both time and time again.

So now I just have two files, an HTML FAQ and a text FAQ, and I
maintain them together. When I make a change to one, I copy/paste the
change to the other.
