Hi,

you get no responst because a mathematica notebook
*is* plain text (7 bit ASCII)

Or that is:

Notebook[{

Cell[CellGroupData[{
Cell[BoxData[
    \(Solve[x^2 - 1 \[Equal] 0, x]\)], "Input"],

Cell[BoxData[
    \({{x \[Rule] \(-1\)}, {x \[Rule] 1}}\)], "Output"]
}, Open  ]]
},
FrontEndVersion->"4.2 for X",
ScreenRectangle->{{0, 1280}, {0, 1024}},
WindowSize->{520, 600},
WindowMargins->{{Automatic, 14}, {102, Automatic}}
]


a Mathematica notebook in plain text.

Or what do you mean with "plain text" ??

Regards
  Jens
