I'm having two problems with Textmaker:
First, I used the trial version for a while, and saved some important files in the proprietary format. Now, the trial version has expired and I cannot access those text files, even through Notepad... I really need to get at these files somehow.
Second, I have a number of text files saved in the TM format, but I suppose they were from an earlier version of TM -- when I tried to open them (before my trial version expired), it told me that they couldn't be read due to being out of date versions.
This, especially, irks me, since the one file in particular was a longstanding journal file that I simply edited in TM. Now I cannot access it.
Any advice? I really need to get at these files, they're full of years of writing and important school notes. I do not intend on purchasing TM, though -- this has difficulty in transporting what should be plain text has turned me off completely.
