Hi, I have a bunch of "pre-historic" word docs that I want to
convert to LyX. I've gathered that the best way to do this is by
converting rtf to latex. (If anyone has a better suggestion I'm
interested.)
I've scoured the LyX sites and the web for any info on rtf2latex2e.
Seems that it was originally written on a mac classic os9. There
are unix and windows versions but I can't find any for OSX for the
Mac. I've tried to compile unix code on the mac but the source only
recognizes OSX for PPC. Mine is intel. And I can't figure out how
to add the correct host definition so I can compile it for intel.
I have managed to successfully run the Windows version of
rtf2latex2e. And it does a fine job. I just don't like using
Windows. The conversion definition is there in LyX 1.5.3 but the
executable for rtf2latex2e isn't.
Does anyone know where I can get (binary or source for) rtf2latex2e
for mac intel?
The easiest way is to use fink or macports.
