Dear Srinivas,

since storing a file as plain ASCII is different for the different editors, which
are used in Oberon, just another way:

Having opened a file with Desktops.OpenDoc you find a buttom labeled Tools
on the right edge of the menu bar and if you middle click it, it allows you to
select StoreAscii or StoreUnix (last two entries). 

Yes the user interface of the Oberon-System has one of the steepest learning 
curve I ever met and if you don't have a guy sitting near you (as for example 
in a students lab) who can and will answer more or less silly questions, it is
difficult to find the answers ... and since the UI is even more reconfigurable 
than the current MS-Windows versions  it is sometimes also difficult to answer
the questions in mails.

Have fun with Oberon.
