I found two pieces of software : Ted, which appears to be popular, and RTF Convertor, which according to the RN is pure java, so it should run under Linux, too.
May I ask : why not OO ? As far as I know, OO has powerful CLI.

i need something free that is not using gui so i could wrap it with perl or some other script and use it .
