You may also want to look at the new doc2html external converter, now
available on http://www.htdig.org/files/contrib/parsers/ , as it should
make it easier to plug in new filters.  It's also bundled in the contrib
files in 3.2.0b2.  It has an advantage over parse_doc.pl and conv_doc.pl
in that it was written by someone who actually knows Perl, rather than
just hacking it like I did.  :-P
