      A program to allow a file to be read (or played) but
      not changed.   Viewers are often freely distributable, even
      when the editor application is not.   This allows you to create
      files with the editor and make the viewer available to other
      users to view your files, e.g. on a {web site}.   Examples
      include the Word and Adobe Acrobat viewers.
