On the MAC version of Microsoft Word, it allows you to save a file in
a Rich Text Format (RTF).  This format encodes Word formatting in plain
ASCII codes to allow easy interpretation by other programs.

Does anyone know how long RTF been around?  In addition, has anyone developed
a RTF interpreter to allow other software (possibly on other platforms) to
display Word document that were generated on a MAC.
