There isn't a one-for-all that I know of. Doc (if that's MS Word) and Lit are probably the hardest to find for command line, especially one that recognizes versions. For the rest, check out print (for PDF mostly), converters and textproc category. There are a few available to you and best you check for yourself what features you need (I suppose batch processing). grep -i rtf /usr/ports/$category/*/pkg-descr does wonders for a quick overview. -- Mel _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
