Convert DOC (Word) to TEXTILE

The DOC file extension, standing for "Microsoft Word Document", is a legacy format used by Microsoft Word. Introduced in the early 1980s with Microsoft Word for MS-DOS, it became the standard format for saving documents until the adoption of the DOCX format with Microsoft Word 2007. DOC files encapsulate text, formatting, images, and other document elements, and were pivotal in advancing word processing capabilities, offering extensive features for creating professional and complex documents in both personal and professional contexts. Despite the shift to DOCX, DOC files remain significant for their compatibility with older software versions and extensive archival of legacy documents.

The TEXTILE file extension, an acronym for Textile Markup Language, is a lightweight markup language developed by Dean Allen in 2002. It converts plain text into structured HTML, making it useful for writing articles, forum posts, and documentation. Textile is known for its simplicity and readability, and it has influenced the development of other markup languages like Markdown.
