There may be a way to display Works documents using the NPDS Note
Server module. However, I will state right up front that all Works-
specific formatting would most likely be lost. At best, I would say
that you could use NPDS to serve the text contained within a Works
document.

On a related note (no pun intended), there is an Admin posting mode
built into NPDS which allows you to specify which folder to save a
note in via the web interface. This could help in getting information
into the Newton using the web server.

Let me play with this a bit and see what I can find out.
