WfW was bought up by Adobe and incorporated into the Adobe File
Utilities, but Adobe then sold it to Inso, which makes Quickview Plus,
and they say they don't intend to continue to develop WfW. Presumably
its code is being exploited for new versions of QVP, but a viewer is a
few rungs below a converter.
