#
# A simple .docx to .txt converter
#
# This script is a wrapper around core docx2txt.pl and saves text output for
# (filename or) filename.docx in filename.txt .
#
# Author : Sandeep Kumar (shimple0 -AT- Yahoo .DOT. COM)
#
# ChangeLog :
#
#    10/08/2008 - Initial version (v0.1)
#    15/08/2008 - Invoking docx2txt.pl with docx document instead of xml file,
#                 so don't need unzip and rm actions now.
#                 Removed dependency on sed for generating output filename.
#    23/09/2008 - Changed #! line to use /usr/bin/env - good suggestion from
#                 Rene Maroufi (info>AT<maroufi>DOT<net) to reduce user work
#                 during installation.
#    15/09/2009 - Added support for directory (holding unzipped content of
#                 .docx file) argument to keep it's usage in sync with main
#                 docx2txt.pl script.
#                 Fixed bug in condition check for input file accessibility.
#    25/11/2009 - Fixed bug in set expression that was resulting in incorrect
#                 handling of file/directory names containing spaces.
#
