    Description: [[Microsoft|MS]]-[[Word]] to [[TeX]] or plain text converter


    This program extracts text from MS-Word files, trying to preserve as many special printable characters as possible. catdoc supports everything up to Word-97. Also supported are MS Write documents and RTF
    files.


    It doesn't even try to preserve fancy Word formatting, because Word users usually don't care about document structure, and it is this very thing which is important to [[LaTeX]] users.


    Also provided is [[xls2csv]], which extracts data from [[Excel]] spreadsheets and outputs it in comma-separated-value format and [[catppt]], which extracts data from [[PowerPoint]] presentations.


    This package suggests [[tk]] because it also includes wordview, an ptional Tk-based [[GUI]] for catdoc. The MIME config provided in this package will use wordview is [[X]] is running, or catdoc directly if it is not.
