- You can ftp from
- ftp.uni-stuttgart.de
- and get all the files in the directory
- soft/tex/latex-supported/multicolumn/*
- which include the utility 'docstrip.tex'. This utility converts .doc
- to .sty files (just by stripping off comments and adding some copyright
- stuff at the beginning, it seems to me).
