.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.I Doc2txt
|
||
|
is an
|
||
|
.IR rc (1)
|
||
|
script that uses
|
||
|
.I olefs
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.I mswordstrings
|
||
|
to extract the printable text from the body of a Microsoft Word document
|
||
|
and write it on the standard output.
|
||
|
.I Doc2ps
|
||
|
is similar, but emits PostScript corresponding to the document.
|
||
|
.I Wdoc2txt
|
||
|
is similar to
|
||
|
.IR doc2txt ,
|
||
|
but uses
|
||
|
.IR plumb (1)
|
||
|
to send the output to a new
|
||
|
.IR acme (1)
|
||
|
window instead.
|
||
|
.I Xls2txt
|
||
|
performs a similar function for Microsoft Excel documents.
|
||
|
.PP
|
||

|
||
|
.I Mswordstrings
|
||
|
or
|
||
|
.I msexceltables
|
||
|
may then be used to parse the files inside, extracting
|
||
|
a text stream.
|
||
|
.I Msexceltables
|
||
|
may be given options to control the formatting of its output.
