Does anyone how to get the text from a .doc file under Unix?
I would like to make a program which is portable and also work under Linux,
not only under Windows, and I think Win32::OLE won't work under Linux.
Open Office reads and write .doc s, but they don't always appear the same as they do in MSWord.
If anything, you might have some shot of a chnace using OLE::Storage or OLE::Storage_Lite
(which is used by Spreadsheet::ParseExcel).
OLE::Storage comes with a parsing script - http://search.cpan.org/~mschwartz/OLE-Storage-0.386/tools/lhalw
Of course it's rather outated.
