While I support any free app. especially those that free our minds from the heavy vampireism of Micro$oft products.. these scripts were a bit difficult to get going. First if you allready don't have or installed antiword you must do so. If your a Unix newbie or dummie, chances are you won't succeed. There are Gui's that do what this does more or less.. although they aren't the best either. Little more work and all should be well. :)
