The file you attached looks like a LaTeX document (usually ends in
.tex), to view it (you will need latex installed):
$ latex newdoc.txt (or whatever the file is called)
$ xdvi newdoc.dvi

2001-05-30 Thread Aaron P Ingebrigtsen

How do I view this file properly?  It is a Unix text file with what looks
HTML code in there.  Here is the file, it is a very small example file
nothing more.

And also how do I view a file containing wierd symbols as well as what
looks like HTML code, when the file is a Unix Text file?  Here is the
example text of that file:
