Here's what I did to build & install rtf2latex2e
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/rtf2latex2e/>
(I did have a problem with "make install" because it wanted to
make a symbolic link at "/usr/bin/rtf2latex2e" so I did
the install by hand.  Note also that I removed the .bin extension
>from the executable, a personal preference)

curl -O http://telia.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/rtf2latex2e/rtf2latex2eUnix1.tar.gz
tar xzf rtf2latex2eUnix1.tar.gz
cd rtf2latex2eUnix-1.0fc1
cd Unix/
./configure
make
cp ../rtf2latex2e.bin ~/bin/rtf2latex2e
mkdir ~/bin/rtf2latex2e_files
cp -r ../pref ~/bin/rtf2latex2e_files/.


--and then I edited my ~/.cshrc to include:
setenv RTF2LATEX2E_DIR   ~/bin/rtf2latex2e_files


This seems to work for me.  I tried it out on a few of the example
files and it seemed to run fine.  The program has a few bugs,
but I'm reporting the ones I find to
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=22324&atid=374868>
