	A promblem with the odt to txt is that the wide-char stuff
	remains embedded.  xe2, x80, x90 to create a "'" ... likewise
	with dashes "--" and beginning double-quotes and ending.

	I have atom that I began hacking in 1994 to turn plain ASCII to
	solid HTML....  I think it's a v2.1+ now...  But since there are
	so many others--and really {because /I don't want to update the
	man page, ...}, no use it making it into a port.
