rtf

I'm looking for a command line interface program that gives me the ability to write formatted text easily interoperable with MS Word and OpenOffice.

I figured RTF would be the common ground. An example of what I was hoping for would be:

[Heading 1]
Hello Heading
[Paragraph Style 1]
My name is hello world, I'm awesome.
