I am trying to convert a large volume of Mac Word files to my NeXT.

Is there a utility/filter that I can give a folder of files to be converted?
Word to RTF would be great, Word to ascii, or Word to WriteNow fine.  Otherwise
I have to open each file in Word and then write it out as RTF, a tedious
process given hundreds of files.

Any help?
