Convert DOC (Word) to TEXINFO

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 Texinfo is a documentation format developed by the GNU Project, created by Richard Stallman and Bob Chassell. It uses plain text files with @-commands to generate both online and printed documentation from a single source. Texinfo files, with the TEXI extension, support various output formats like HTML, PDF, and Info. This system simplifies maintaining consistent documentation across multiple formats.
