ehh - no. That would of course have been the best solution, and
probably quite simple to implement. Point is that the word-lisp
solution is written to view doc-files which I have in my own
filesystem, i.e. not attachements.

So what I do is to:

1. Save the doc-file to a doc file in my own home directory with "o".
2. Open this doc-file with M-x load-word-file

But I absolutely agree that writing a small wrapper to combine to the
two when treating attatchements would be wise.

If you could try my prcedure listed above, and then give a new opinion
of word-lisp I would be very grateful.
