Perl extension for converting RTF into text

use strict;
use RTF::TEXT::Converter;
my $object = RTF::TEXT::Converter->new(
output => \*STDOUT
);
$object->parse_stream( \*RTF_FILE );
OR
use strict;
use RTF::TEXT::Converter;
my $object = RTF::TEXT::Converter->new(
output => \$string
);
$object->parse_string( $rtf_data );

Constructor method. Currently takes one named parameter, output, which can either be a reference to a filehandle, or a reference to a string. This is where our text output will end up.
Read RTF in from a filehandle, and start processing it. Pass me a reference to a filehandle.
Read RTF in from a string, and start processing it. Pass me a string.

You can mix-and-match your output and input methods - nothing to stop you outputting to a string when you've read from a filehandle...
