-This is a program for viewing MS Word documents. It produces plain
-text output and can optionally convert non-standard characters into
-TeX control sequences. It works with MS Word 97 documents.
-
-There is also a cute little Tcl/Tk program included called wordview, which
-is basically a small GUI frontend to catdoc for viewing word documents.
-The wordview program works with Tcl 7.6 and up, but uses Tk 8.0 by default.
-
-There are two more utilities, xls2csv and xlsview, for dealing with
-MS Excel spreadsheets. xls2csv converts an Excel spreadsheet to a plain
-text file with CSV (comma-separated values) lines.
