Ok, I have applied a patch bases on yours. It tries "catdoc", "word2x" and
then "strings". Excel files are handled by "xls2csv" and the fallback is
also "strings".
By the way:
1) Spaces should be backslashed in the "type" directives. It was wrong for
MS Word, but I assume that you haven't tested type recognition for Excel.
2) I removed "Document" and "Worksheet" at the end. My "file" command
(RedHat 7.1) would sometimes print "Microsoft Excel 5.0 Worksheet" which
wouldn't match. Even worse, it prints "Microsoft Office Document" for my
MS Word files, but fortunately they all have doc extention.
The resulting entries in mc.ext are:
# Microsoft Word Document
regex/\.([Dd]o[ct]|DO[CT]|[Ww]ri|WRI)$
View=%view{ascii} catdoc -w %f || word2x -f text %f - || strings %f
type/Microsoft\ Word
View=%view{ascii} catdoc -w %f || word2x -f text %f - || strings %f
# Microsoft Excel Worksheet
regex/\.([Xx]l[sw]|XL[SW])$
View=%view{ascii} xls2csv %f || strings %f
type/Microsoft\ Excel
View=%view{ascii} xls2csv %f || strings %f
