HOWTO

# wv2 0.2.2
# =========
# Slackware 10.0, 10.1, and 10.2's 'wv2' packages include version 0.2.2

# wv2 is a replacement for the original wv.
# Both of them can co-exist.  There are utils in the original for
# conversions, this one (at least so far) is just a library.  wv2 is used
# by apps like KWord and Abiword.

# Prerequisites:
# gawk
# sed
# grep
# pkg-config
# libgsf >= 1.7.2
# iconv
