====== Microsoft Word to DokuWiki Converter ======

This is a vbScript that will do basic formatting conversion from word to dokuwiki. It's not perfect, but it will save you a lot of time if you have lots of word docs like me. Also, cells pasted into word from excel will be converted, so it's almost an excel converter.

It's poorly written ugly uncommented crappy code that has come to you as a fixed up version of an old version which supported old syntax which was created by someone else mashing together conversion code for openoffice and mediawiki. So yeh, it's crap!! Here's a readme that, just like the code, is mostly ripped off from other people. I give all the credit for this to whoever it was that did it, except for the bits I fixed up so it would actually work ;) So here's a fixed up version of their readme:

===== INTRO =====

Convert Microsoft Word document content to MediaWiki markup.

This is a Word Visual Basic macro. Usage requires a running copy of Microsoft Word that supports Visual Basic macros. (Word 97 or greater).
Features

    * Replaces smart quotes/double-quotes with dumb equivalents
    * Escapes the following characters: * # { } [ ] ~ ^^ | '
    * Converts external hyperlinks
    * Converts H1-H5 headings
    * Converts bold/italic/underline/strikethrough/superscript/subscript formatting
    * Converts bulleted/numbered lists


===== CAVEATS =====


    * No guarantees, no official support, just like the DokuWiki itself (or Word =} )
    * No in-document hyperlink conversion (so make Wiki links yourself after pasting)
    * May not work well with documents that have highly customized styles/templates. It works best with documents written in the default "Normal" template
    * Image/graphics/figures are not supported.
    * Tables go a bit crazy if you have carriage returns inside the cells... I can't get around that, it's a microsoft thing. 
    * | or ^ characters within tables get converted to I and /\ or they'll screw it up.


===== INSTALLATION =====


   1. Copy the code from below, and save it to a file on your disk named Word2Doku.bas
   2. Start Word
   3. Bring up the Visual Basic Editor (Tools->Macro->Visual Basic Editor or Alt+F11).
   4. From the VBE, import the macro library (File->Import File...) and select the file you downloaded.


===== USAGE =====


   1. Open a word document to convert
   2. Run the Word2DokuWiki macro by bringing up the Macros dialog (Tools->Macro->Macros or Alt+F8), selecting Word2DokuWiki and clicking Run.
   3. The macro converts the document to DokuWiki markup and places a copy of the content on the system clipboard.
   4. Switch to a DokuWiki editor page (or new page) and paste the result in.
   


===== ATTRIBUTION =====

I did not come up with this macro, I found it in pieces all over the web and made for other wiki formats, and strapped it all together. If you're a MIDIboxer, just hit me up if you need support.

Cheers!
