MacWrite II Document (.mcw)

The MCW file extension stands for MacWrite II Document, a text file format created by Apple for its MacWrite II word processing program, which is now discontinued. These documents store text and basic page formatting information and can be opened by MacWrite II, ClarisWorks, and AppleWorks. Given the discontinuation of these programs, users may need to convert MCW files to more common formats like DOC or DOCX for compatibility with modern word processors.

ROFF Manuscript Document (.ms)

The MS file extension, short for "Manuscript", is associated with the roff (runoff) document formatting system used in Unix-like operating systems. It is part of the GNU roff (groff) implementation, which formats documents such as letters, memoranda, reports, and books. Historically, it evolved from the Multics runoff system in the 1960s and became integral to Unix documentation. The MS macro package supports features like cover pages, table of contents, numbered headings, and multi-column layouts.
