Is there any Linux application that will handle MS Word .docx files successfully?
A .dox file is a compressed archive of .xml files but unpacking it doesn't really produce anything very usable.
OpenOffice.org 3 or docx-converter.com ...
... er, but isn't docx-converter.com an MS Windows program, not much help on a Linux box.
... and OpenOffice.org 3 is still in beta I guess so isn't really an easy option, i.e. a bit OTT for just opening a document.
I think I'll just say that .docx files are even more unacceptable than ordinary MS Word .doc files.
