Hi, friends!
Just to announce the port of two Unix utilities:
rel-1.3.tbz sorts input text files according to relevance to given combination of keywords
pstotext-1.8g.tbz extracts plain ascii text from ps/pdf document
Get the ports from http://next.gli.cas.cz/plan9/ape (the server is usually up 15:30 - 03:00 GMT; may be down outside this time span, sorry (I still switch between Plan 9 and Linux, sigh).
Both programs are APE ports, thus, they know nothing of Unicode :-(. Rel is taken from Debian sources (look at http://www.debian.org, for a link to its homepage); pstotext, now part of gsview, is was grabbed direstly from its homepage at
http://research.compaq.com/SRC/virtualpaper/pstotext.html.
I received no response from the authors, so I suppose I may redistribute the modified sw with the original licenses. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Why I didn't make native ports? I am not skilled enough :-(((. However, you are encouraged.
Enjoy!
++pac.
