At the beginning everything seemed to be so easy, but now I fail to get
out of this one ...

I'm trying to run htdig 3.1.6 on a Debian system, using doc2html and
external parsers pdf2html and wp2html. Parsing and indexing work fine
for pdf and msword, but fail on wordperfect - and we have lots of old
(and new) wordperfect-files.

Using the command line I get the following:

>./wp2html wordperfectfile.wpd
><--            Wp2Html Version 4.0             -->
><~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~>

... resulting in a file wordperfectfile.html - i.e. wp2html works correct.

But:

> ./doc2html.pl /usr/share/htdig/wordperfectfile.wpd 
application/wordperfect
>doc2html: [application/wordperfect]
>!       UNABLE to convert

There is some mistake that I can't track down.

I also tried:

> ./doc2html.pl /usr/share/htdig/wordperfectfile.wpd 
application/wordperfect5.1

and

> ./doc2html.pl /usr/share/htdig/wordperfectfile.wpd 
application/wordperfect6.0

and

> ./doc2html.pl /usr/share/htdig/wordperfectfile.wpd 
application/Wordperfect

Same result.

I read some stuff about mime-types that I don't understand. Is it matter
of wordperfect-versions?

Any hints?
