NOTE: The project I was working on that would have made use of doc_parser has been put on the backburner. Consequently, doc_parser has also been put on hold. I may finish it if I have freetime, but it's no longer needed. It's not much but it might be a halfway decent starting point for anyone interested in parsing docx/OOXML. doc_parser is a set of tools written in Ruby designed to parse the docx file format to either rtf or html. After scouring around the internet for quite sometime, I couldn't find anything to fit my needs, so I decided to give it a try myself. Required Gems: rubyzip libxml-ruby Recent Changes: added basic unzipping added basic raw text parsing
