mmm... on unix, the dash usually means standard input, so what i think is
happening is that no-word calls antiword and tries to pipe the .doc file to it,
but antiword doesn't understand, it thinks it needs to process a file named `-'.
it could be that the windows port of antiword doesn't support reading from
stdin.
what happens if you try to open a file with M-x no-word-find-file rather than
with C-x C-f? i suspect that should work better.
