Annoyingly enough, the other day got the first RTF file I've gotten in probably 20 years. To make matters worse, it was JSON that the customer decided should be sent as an RTF attachment to an email.

Of course I run Linux on my work computer so I didn't have wordpad anyway. I had to use a cli utility to convert it to text, then use vscode to properly format it, since he conversion removed all the indentation/spacing.

If I never see another RTF file again, it'll be too soon.
