I'm trying to read the 'paper.ascii' file contained in
/usr/share/doc/psd/12.make/paper.ascii.gz and it is
a mess. This is a tutorial on "make". I've unzipped
the file in a WinXP machine and I can't find a display
tool that will not show the formatting stuff in the file.

What is the "right" way to read this file?
On UNIX you would do
# gunzip < paper.ascii.gz | more

On the DOS Prompt in Windows more is available, too.
So unzip your document, open DOS Prompt and do something like
c:\Desktop> more paper.ascii
