For RTF, search.cpan.org search for RTF returns RTF::TEXT::Converter.
Re .doc files, if nothing else there are programs such as antiword
which you could use to get the text.

convert the file to plain txt format.
I did it successfully in a windows XP machine using Win32::OLE without

a call to the IsWinNT subroutine.
Any idea what to do to convert .doc to .txt ?
Maybe some reg exp will do the work?
(also .rtf to .txt is desirable).
Thank you!
