Title: doc2html.pl and word2x

Doc2html.pl requires a minimum of two parameters to work, it must have the MIME-type.   Try:   $ /usr/local/bin/doc2html.pl //c/air31.doc application/msword   Can you tell us a bit more about word2x?  What platforms will it run on, and where can one get it? I would like to include support for it in the next version of doc2html.   -- David Adams Computing Services Southampton University ----- Original Message ----- From: Holmes, Gregory To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Sent: Friday, June 29, 2001 2:09 PM Subject: [htdig] doc2html.pl and word2x [I apologize for the multipart email, an MS Exchange bug ignores my client settings for plain text] I'm trying to use word2x as an external converter for Word docs, through doc2html.pl. When I run word2x $ /usr/local/bin/word2x.exe //c/air31.doc \- It works; I get the text to stdout. So I put this in doc2html.pl: my $CATDOC = '/usr/local/bin/word2x.exe'; and later, in the text section $cmdl = "$cmd $Input \-"; where appropriate. The only output I get from $ /usr/local/bin/doc2html.pl //c/air31.doc is doc2html: [?] !       UNABLE to convert How can I troubleshoot this?  Any ideas? Thanks, -Greg Holmes
