Changes in V 4.1
================
Added conversion of docx files which are produced by newer versions of
Microsofts Word.
Docx files are Zip archives which contain several xml files. Next shows
these files in a small window after a docx file has been selected. One of
them, word/document.xml, contains the text which will be displayed after
a klick.
