Pascal Essiembre commented on TIKA-1946:
----------------------------------------
I finally had a bit of time to port the WordPerfect parser to the project. I
also added a Quattro Pro parser (also from WordPerfect Office suite). As it is
the first time I make a pull-request for Tika, let me know if anything is not
proper.
The QuattroPro parser only supports *.qpw files, but since other QuatroPro
formats share the same mime-type, the parser will be invoked for other formats
as well (*.wb?). I added a check in the parser code that will simply log a
message stating the format is unsupported when encountered. If you have a
better approach to suggest let me know.
