FYI Daniel, wv has the major advantage that it can interact with mutt : suppose you already use mutt, and you just install wv, well under Debian when pressing v (view) under mutt then selecting and pressing enter at the document.doc, it simply converts on the fly and shows the document. (tested uner Debian, I ignore how does this works for other distros) Aldo.
