Python script for deMSWordification?

[kelvin.chu at uvm.edu]

Dear fellow Pythoneers;

Numerous colleagues and administration types send memos, colloqium
announcements and other things around in Micro$oft word format.  Has anyone
written a filter in Python that can convert these things into normal text?

If not, is there a basic set of rules for decoding .doc format files
anywhere that I can look at?

Cheers,

-k
