To just view .doc files from the commandline, you can also try
textproc/catdoc.

Abiword (editors/abiword) can also edit Word files, but has
difficulties with some documents that work fine with openoffice.

I routinely exchange  Powerpoint presentations (*.ppt) between
Powerpoint and Openoffice with only minor problems.

HTH,
