Description-en: text extractor for MS-Office files
The catdoc program reads one or more Microsoft Word files and outputs
their contents to standard output as text.
.
It is accompanied by xls2csv, a program which converts Excel spreadsheets
into comma-separated-values format, and catppt, a utility to extract textual
information from PowerPoint files.
.
It doesn't try to preserve Word formatting; its goal is to extract plain
text and allow you to read it (and, probably, reformat it with TeX).
.
This package suggests tk because it also includes wordview, an
optional Tk-based GUI for catdoc. The MIME config provided in this
package will use wordview if X is running, or catdoc directly if it
is not.
