SYNOPSIS

       wvWare [-c charset] [--charset charset] [-p password] [--password password] [-x
       config.xml] [--config config.xml] [-d dir] [--dir dir] filename

DESCRIPTION

       wvWare  converts  word   documents   into   other   formats   such   as
       PS,PDF,HTML,LaTeX,DVI,ABW

   OPTIONS
       -c charset, --charset charset
              word  97 documents are stored in one of two formats, either in 8
              bit windows codepages or in 16bit unicode. The  unicode  can  be
              converted  easily  into utf-8, and the codepages are promoted to
              unicode  and  converted  from  there,  except  for  the  western
              european  codepage  which  is always converted to iso-5589-15 if
              possible. This is the  default  behaviour.  It  in  possible  to
              convert  into  other  formats  or  to  force  a  conversion to a
              particular format, it is not  recomended  as  you  don’t  get  a
              guarantee  that  the output will be correct, for instance if you
              convert an english document into koi8-r encoding then it will be
              wrong,  but  if  you  are sure then you can override the default
              output format using this option. The charsets that are available
              depend  on  your  system. Systems using the gnu libc 2 and above
              can convert to just about anything, systems that at wv configure
              time  prove  to  be  inadequate  for charset conversion use wv’s
              internal conversion formats which are  a  small  subset  of  the
              possible conversions, namely utf-8 iso-5589-15 koi8-r tis-620

       -p password, --password password
              Due  to  heroic  work  done  by  a great team or workers, the wv
              library  can  decrypt  password  protected  word  97  and  older
              versions of word documents given the correct password.

       -d dir, --dir dir
              If  dir is used then any created graphics will be placed in this
              directory. The default  is  the  directory  in  which  the  word
              document is.

       -x config.xml, --config config.xml
              Use  this  to  give the location of the config file, if not used
              the config file is searched for by first  checking  the  current
              directory,  and  then  by  looking  in  the install location, by
              default its /usr/local/lib/wv/wvHtml.xml
