Subject: [9fans] Improving programs like doc2txt
Date: Sat, 16 Feb 2008 22:14:11 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <243301C3-1DF0-4CE2-BF7F-F295F8247294@mac.com> (raw)

Microsoft just released the Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint .doc/.xls/.ppt file format specifications:

> http://www.microsoft.com/interop/docs/OfficeBinaryFormats.mspx

I'm planning to write ms2doc, a program to convert troff -ms to .doc
files for easier collaboration between Plan 9 and Windows.
