bassplayer has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Good Morning Monks,

I am in need of the ability to create a MS Word document from Linux. I have Super Searched and Googled but have not found what I needed. Some of the nodes I found were a bit old, so I thought I would ask if anymonk has found anything new towards this end.

I suppose I could create an RTF instead, but my preference is a true Word doc. For this, I will probably have to do this using Win32::OLE on a Windows box, but I would really rather avoid this for many reasons. I suppose what I am looking for is the Word version of Spreadsheet::WriteExcel. :)

Does anyone have any suggestions for either the Word solution or the RTF solution?
