title: How to process rtf files on R?
body: <p>I have huge number of *.rtf (rich text format) files. They contain text data to be analysed. But R does not seem to support them. When I run the code I get garbage values. The code is right but the word format doesn't seem to be very well supported. Is there any easier method to get the code running on them because converting them to *.txt file is an option that I hesitate to take due to the fact that there are more than 1000 files! I am using Windows operating system.</p>
