I use Netscape Messenger to read my e-mail, a lot of which has Microsoft Word attachments. Since I use AIX (IBM Unix) I can't invoke Microsoft Word, but I *can* invoke FrameMaker on the attachment using the rule 	"maker -f %s" This doesn't do the whole job, though; Framemaker pops up with a menu asking what format the file is; is there another command-line option so I can specify it directly, like 	"maker -format==MSW -f %s" or some way to specify it with a macro? And for that matter, I get the usual new-open-exit-help menu that I don't need; is there a way to suppress this?
