How about something that takes a draft usenet article, eliminates
silly abbreviations such as engg and bout, enforces spelling, such
as capitalizing 'I' for the first person pronoun or correcting rite
and scrach, breaks into sentences separated by periods and blanks,
removes the annoying "..." separators, forms the result into
paragraphs neatly separated with blank lines, and keeps the right
hand margin under 70 or so. The list goes on.
Basically a Dudespeek to English translator. I see no use for the
inverse operation.

Thanks for ur advice and suggested URLs. And I seriously apologise
for being sloppy in writing my previous mail.
Well the project sounds fictitious because it has been assigned to me
in that spirit. The project was explained to me in just 5 minutes flat
and so these are the only details I have. The only documetation I have
is a printout containing all applications and sub applications used in
the company and the platform on which this application will be used is
OS 400 on AS 400 machines.
The reason why I posted this mail was to invite ideas as to how could I
make the best use of these details because I myself found these details
way too less. I think I should have written about this in the first
mail to avoid frustration to the people who are trying to help.
Anyways now that it is known that the project has been assigned to me
just for the heck of it would like to make my project such that they
want to use it...I would definately not let my work go wasted...So do
let me know what you think could be done in this direction.
Greetings.
Aditi

I have no idea what you are talking about, partially due to the
complete lack of context. See my sig. below for some suggestions.

how it can give advice today.
