Anyone have a link to w3m in a windows executable (command line is
fine, I just don't have access to a way to compile the source where
I'm at right now)?  This definitely looks interesting.
A friend of mine competent in Windows stuff suggests to use the
following:

==== xml2txt.js ====
var x = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.FreeThreadedDOMDocument");
x.load(WScript.Arguments(0));
var p = x.documentElement.selectNodes("//p");
for (var it = new Enumerator(p) ; !it.atEnd() ; it.moveNext())
{
        var t = it.item().text.replace(/\s+/, " ");
        if (t.charAt(0) == " ")
                t = t.slice(1);
        var l = t.length;
        var i = 0;
        var j = 0;
        while (i < l)
        {
                j = i + 77;
                if (j <= l)
                {
                        j = t.lastIndexOf(" ", j);
                        if (j < i)
                        {
                                j = t.indexOf(" ", i);
                                if (j == -1)
                                        j = l;
                        };
                }
                else
                {
                        j = l;
                };
                WScript.Echo(t.slice(i, j));
                i = j + 1;
        };
        WScript.Echo("");
};
WScript.Quit(0);
====================

Run it with the following command:

-=-=-=
cscript //nologo xml2txt.js ton_fichier.xml
-=-=-=

With the paragraphs in the XML marked as <p></p> (Cf the selectNodes
call).
