More MS Word for DOS file parsing in the name of GSM

It seems that from TS 09.02 version 4.2.0 on, the editors have actually put markers as "hidden text" inside the Word document, which allow better automatic detection when a given ASN.1 module starts, is interrupted by plain text, continues and ends. The following screen shot (from Section 14 of the above-mentioned document) is human-readable hidden text explaining the syntax:

So now I'm adding this format as a second option to my extraction tool.

Please note: The tool I wrote yesterday (working fine with version 3.x.y of 09.02) is available from asn1_docextract.git. Later today it should also support the >= 4.2.0 annotations outlined in this blog post.
