Description: # striprtf
        [![Build Status](https://api.travis-ci.org/joshy/striprtf.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/joshy/striprtf)
        
        ## Purpose
        This is a simple library to convert rtf files to python strings. A lot of
        medical documents are written in rtf format which is not ideal for parsing
        and further processing. This library converts it to plain old text.
        
        ## How to use
        ```python
        from striprtf.striprtf import rtf_to_text
        rtf = "some rtf encoded string"
        text = rtf_to_text(rtf)
        print(text)
        ```
        
        ## How to use online
        If you don't want to install, there is also an online version available at https://striprtf.dev
        
        
        ## History
        [Pyth](https://github.com/brendonh/pyth) was not working for the rtf files I
        had. The next best thing was this gist:
        https://gist.github.com/gilsondev/7c1d2d753ddb522e7bc22511cfb08676
        
        Very few additions where made, e.g. better formatting of tables.
