For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
If you have SCRIPT, don't you also have the Document Composition Facility?
All you need to do is format the document through DCF and specify a device
type of terminal (or 3270). The output will be a flat, ascii file with
hints of
the original intended format (things marked as bold will appear uppercase,
placeholders for artwork but, of course, no actual graphics, etc.).
It should also be pretty easy to write a macro to strip out the tags, if
that's all
you want to achieve. Feel free to contact me directly if you need
assistance.
