What's a good way to process RTF-encoded files and convert them to XML?

Question

I have never done huge amounts of RTF processing, I always used a library to read or generate one and that was a long time ago. Now I need to get more intimate with the format again, and eventually convert it to XML.

Can you recommend a good path to do it so that I have a lot of control on how RTF chunks are parsed and processed?

Initially, I am thinking Perl plus a few good libraries would be a good choice, but all opinions are welcome.

Answer 1

RTF Manual? Seriously though, a quick google turns up all sorts of tools and libraries. Why reinvent the wheel?
