Automate converting legacy .wri file to .txt using write.exe?


I must to convert a lot of old Windows WRI files. I got old Wordpad - write.exe, that runs on XP or older WIN. I can't find any information about available command line options for write.exe Only option it seems is: open file passed by first argument or print file by additional /p argument.

What I need is: automate (BATCH script) opening WRI file and saving as TXT file using write.exe
