You might try dvispell, part of the emTeX release. It takes a dvi file and
writes a text file (as best it can). This is the same as dvitty, right?

dvispell can be found at ftp-os2.nmsu.edu in pub/os2/all/emtex/betatest/.

--darrel hankerson hank@ducvax.auburn.edu

P.S. ftp-os2 also has dvips 5.490 and dvidvi, both for DOS and OS/2:
  pub/os2/2.0/emtex/dvips549.zoo   OS/2 2.0 port by Sinha
  pub/os2/all/emtex/dvips549.zip   DOS/OS2 add'l files (I did these)
  pub/os2/all/emtex/dvidvi.zip     Rokicki's dvi-to-dvi for DOS/OS2

You will need Sinha's stuff to use my DOS and OS2 (1.x--2.0) port (use Sinha's
port if you have OS/2 2.0). 

Note: my files are currently in pub/downloads/. I am guessing at the final
resting place.
