If youu are on a *nix system, there is a package called mswordview, or
alternatively you could check the www.htdig.org site for document parsers
(catdoc.pl and parsedoc.pl, I think).
If you are on Windows you could of course use Turd itself, but I think
there is also some sort of Word doc viewer; whether they will do what you
want is another story.
